[QUOTE="orwapitihunter, post: 707849, member: 1939"] Ranger3, I have a 22-250 Ackley Improved with a 9 twist that I built for that specific bullet. I use H414 powder and WLR primers. I generally run about 3350 fps but have ran it up to 3450. The rifle shoots great. My kids liked shooting it so much that I built an 8 twist .223 so I could get MY 22-250AI back. I talked to lots of guys that tried the 75 Amax in their 9 twist .223's before I built the 22-250AI. What I found was at .223 speeds the 9 twist was not fast enough to guarantee stability. It was about a 50/50 deal. But it was close enough with the .223's that I went ahead and bet the success of the AI build on a 9 twist working. [/QUOTE]
