I get your thinking, BUT, with the 22-250, the ability to drive the bullet much faster than .223 velocities may allow you to stabilize a heavier bullet at that twist rate than the .223.
Always used an RCBS manual, but I just picked up a Lyman case trim express that looks super easy. However, I haven’t run any cases yet. My buddy who has that unit loves it so I’m optimistic. I also picked up the Lyman case prep center as well so I’m going from manual with everything to...
Vibratory with Lyman corn cob media for me. Lube, size and into the cleaner for 3-4 hours. Corn cob doesn’t seem to plug as many flash holes as walnut does for me, and cleans out easier when it does. I use a dental pick, flicks it right out.
That’s some scary stuff right there. I’m glad your wife was spared any devastating injuries. Thank you to the Mauser brothers and Bill Ruger. How long did you have to sleep on the couch?
I received the two grid fleece hoodies I ordered today. I was really nervous, debating between XL and 2XL. As my post above stated, I’m 201-205 and 6’4”. I ordered the XL and am very happy. I put them on over some BlackOvis 200 Tuscarora tops and still felt roomy enough in them. More...
I shoot 162 ELDX’s and 168 VLD’s in mine with a 1:9 twist. Berger’s website says that the 180 VLD’s will be marginally stable where I live but just fine out west, but I haven’t messed with them. Yet.
I know this is nit picky, but your statement isn’t quite correct. In a 2.5-15 SFP scope, the reticle would be double around 8.75X. It’s calculated as 15-2.5=12.5. Then 12.5/2=6.25. Then 6.25+2.5=8.75. Not huge but it could be if you had a longer shot.
I suppose if you’re not going down the accuracy rabbit hole, your brass that has been “good enough” to kill what you wanted, when you wanted, is probably “good enough”.
