[QUOTE="Austin_Michael, post: 2623018, member: 29244"] Finally got my 20" 22-250AI finished. Shilen 1-7.5 twist with their 4 groove ratchet rifling. Thought it might be easier on jackets and avoid bullet failure issues. [ATTACH type="full" alt="20220905_071630.jpg"]395578[/ATTACH] Initial powder testing with 75gr ELDs ran between 3100 up to 3525, but the most stable node across several powders was at 3250 fps. I did test 90gr SMKs to see if the 7.5 twist was enough and they grouped in a nice clover leaf, with clean holes. It's just a good looking cartridge and so fun to shoot suppressed. No recoil.
