[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 457956, member: 25383"] you can make a 22-250 work well with a 22" barrel length, but you'll need faster powders. The 1:12 twist is very good in that caliber. The 1:12 twist in a .223 would be great! This allows you to use some of the longer .223 bullets, but still will be touchey for the 53 grain Vmax (.29 B/C). It will shoot the 55 grain Nosler BT as well as the 55 VMax just fine. Should do OK with the 60 grain Nosler partition as well, but once again will be close. The 1:9 twist will do it all in a .223 if that matters. I use a 1:14 twist 20" barrel in .223, and has no problems with the 55 grain VMax (3250fps). Myself, I'd get the .223 in the 1:9 twist, and never look back gary [/QUOTE]
