[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 441001, member: 25383"] a 55 grain Nosler BT will rarely stabalize in a 1:14 twist barrel when fired in a 22-250. It will work in a 1:12 twist barrel, and even then barely. Yet I've seen a few guys shoot the 50 grain BT in 1:14 twist barrels, but they were longer and probably show 200 fps more velocity. I think I'd look for a shorter bullet in the same weight for compairison. I shoot the 55 grain Vmax all the time at 3250 fps out of a 1:14 twist barrel, and I'd think this combo should do just fine for you. The Seirra 1365 bullet in a 22-250 seems to really work well in a 1:12 twist barrel, but I also know guys with remingtons that shoot the same bullet (1:14 twist) very well gary [/QUOTE]
