[QUOTE="Kevin, post: 3632, member: 603"] JB If I was you I would not worry about stabilizing a 60gr. as you will not gain anything by shooting that bullet over a 55gr. Expecially using the nosler partition which has a BC of .228. If you want to shoot the heavier bullets look to 70 plus grainers and with a 1:8 twist. The BC of most 60 gr. bullets doesn't compensate for the lack of initial velocity until the range is too far for a 22-250 anyway. I have had good luck shooting 55gr. Sierra BTSP on deer with impact velocities as low as 2300 fps, which out of a 22-250 would put you out 400-500 yards. [ 12-16-2002: Message edited by: MTBA ] [/QUOTE]
