[QUOTE="Redfoot Ranch, post: 2452305, member: 118915"] I have friends who were building 8tw 22-243 AI with shooting 75-80 pills for coyote hunting. They have transitioned these during setback or in new builds to 8tw 22 CM. Quickload shows me a 250 AI and 22 CM are fairly close ballistically. I have my Savage firing pins turned and bolt heads bushed to run small primer/small flash hole in most of the wildcats I put together. I built an 8tw CM with intent of running 75's but it'll shoot well from 53 V-Max's to 88 ELD-M's. I have found many powders that perform well with this cartridge. I originally necked down 6.5 Lapua brass and did not need to turn brass but do a skim pass anyway. The same with 50 pieces of 6.5 Peterson SRP I picked up for comparison. Dale [/QUOTE]
