What bullet for 22-250 & coyotes

[bcar]

i used 55gr game kings one season and had A LOT of runners. Switched back to blitz.

I tried the 53gr nosler varmageddons on beavers and it's quite explosive on them things. Haven't been able to find any coyotes yet this year.

No first hand experience but in that weight class, the word on the street is the 53vmax

I like the 52 gr berger and sierra smk if saving fur. 50 vmax or NBT if not.

 

[Hobo_Steve]

+1 for the 50gr vmax.

Mine loves 55gr Nosler Ballistic Tips with a stiff dose of Varget.

5” or 53 vmax and one 4064 is my favorite by far, sierra 52 perform excellent as well

Anybody tried the sierra #1390?
It's a 55gr BTHP but looks like a trashcan the HP is so large.

Yep, been shooting them since the 90’s, 33.5 grains of IMR 4064.

Are they pretty violent?
Ive loaded some for 223 but havent tried them yet.

In my 1/14 twist 22-250 they do not leave large holes, my experience with them is mostly bang flop dead. No runners, they seem to deliver alot of energy into the coyotes and anchor them. I experimented with nosler ballistic tips in various weights 40-50 grain, v-max, ect and had more coyotes get up and run with big holes in their sides than I wanted. This is a mild load, when I loaded it closer to 36 grains it put a much bigger hole than I wanted.

Sierra 52 grain hpbt match king . Fur friendly and drt

I m a huge fan of the 64 grain .224” tipped gameking at 22-250 velocities if you have the twist rate to shoot it. Next to that I really like the 60 grain vmax and if that one is too long look at the nosler 50 balistic tip. All those are excellent pills for coyotes.
