[QUOTE="65WSM, post: 1298129, member: 9551"] I have a 22 BR. I built it to shoot 80 gr Nosler HPBT match bullets. It has an 8 twist 26" Bartlein barrel. I had the reamer built to seat the bullets out so the bottom of the bullet is flush with the bottom of the neck. So the taper of the boattail prevents "donut" issues with the bottom of the neck. I also built a .20 BR with similar design for the .204 55gr Berger. The .22 BR does what I intended it to do. It will shoot clay pigeons (4.25") at 550 yards at the clay bank at the back of the Club range. Actually complete clay pigeons are too easy, so I collect only the 2" clay pigeon centers from the trap field. I have used both R-17 and VV N-550 with accuracy. The VV N-550 will more nearly fill the case and shoots 80 gr bullets at close to 3000 fps. [/QUOTE]
