[QUOTE="DMP25-06, post: 1287276, member: 27271"] Hello Codyadams , I have a Ruger 77V in .220 Swift . I had it re-barreled in 1 : 8" twist , 26" to crown . I think that I have read that the .220 Swift and the .22-250 AI have very close to same case capacity . I shoot 80gr. A-Max bullets , using H4350 powder , WW brass , and Federal 210M primers . Muzzle velocity is 3305 FPS average through a Magnetospeed chronograph , ES 15 fps. From a 100yd. zero , it only requires 23.2 moa of elevation to shoot 1000 yards , and I am at 800 feet above sea level . Bullet is seated long in case , 2.928 " C.O.A.L. It is extremely accurate , out to 1200 yards , the farthest distance that I have shot it . Using H4350 , I started load development at 36.0 gr. and worked up from there .The H4350 powder has shown to be very stable in changing temperatures . I also developed a second choice loading , using H414 powder , but could only reach 3220 fps safely , but it is very accurate , only it is very sensitive to temperature changes , especially in summer heat . I tried H4831 and IMR4064, but neither developed as much velocity , nor were as accurate . I have never tried 90 gr. bullets . I hope this will be useful to you. DMP25-06 [/QUOTE]
