[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 2201364, member: 115658"] Easy light recoil, light powder charge, relatively light bullets, powder shortages - I went to a 7.7 twist .22-.250 with a .224 75 H ELDM primary bullet with loads in the 34.5 - 37 grain range using H4550, RL16, Shooter's world 4350, Alliant 4000MR, STABALL 6.5. Good results, even with Vectan 8000. Very close or slightly better results than 87 gr. loads in .243W, 6mm Rem, 6mm AI with 11-12 grains less powder. Barrel life appears to be better than .243W. My light & zippy bullet rifles are now a .20P & .204R. The 20's & 7.7 twist .22-.250(s) are used for almost all of my shooting except when I want more impact then its the 6mm's & 6.5mm's. Go to the Berger manual & see the .22-.250 pages. [/QUOTE]
