[QUOTE="Freebore, post: 406478, member: 873"] My load in the 22-250 is 35.5 of IMR-4895 with the 55 BalTip for 3600+ fps. or I can switch to IMR-4064 and bump it to 36.5 for just about the same performance. This load has worked very well in many factory rifle for me. Strickly W-W standard LR primers worth 50 fps for me and better accuracy. If shooting deer I almost always go for the neck/behind the ear. If going to the boiler you HAVE TO stay off of the shoulder and go back a few ribs or wait until the leg is forward and drill the heart. These are shot taken under 300 yrds. I shoot a Ruger #1 and I clean the barrel every 10 shots or the groups open to 3/4" at 100 instead of 1/4". I want that 1/2" advantage. I have taken doe Antelope out to 650 with a Swift. It drives the 55's at 3900 with N-160 It is a custom rifle. I've taken PD's to 700 with the 69SMK in the Swift...the 22-250 dies at 500 for me. I have always wondered about the performance of the Nosler 60 Partition though and the Barnes TSX in that 22-250. As said prior...bullet placement is the key. [/QUOTE]
