[QUOTE="ShtrRdy, post: 1966075, member: 40852"] I always thought I would get a faster twist barrel for my .22-250 so I could shoot heavier bullets. Now that the original barrel is going downhill it's getting closer to that time to decide. On the other hand I love how I can shoot a 55 grain bullet at 3600 fps into nice little groups. And that faster velocity hides some of my less than perfect shooting form. The 55 gr Blitzking does amazing things to prairie poodles. If I want to shoot longer distances I have a 6mm Creedmoor that does wonderfully. I dont know if there is a 100+ grain bullet for the 6mm that can cause small critters to explode. Let's hear your thoughts on if I should plan for heavier .22 cal bullets or stay with the original .22-250 design. [/QUOTE]
