Eric, Treasure Valley. We shot many a chuck in the Eden/Hazelton area a decade plus ago. My wife's uncle had farm ground out by the hunt track.
That 22 Creedmoor is a performer. In long barreled guns (30") friend has been blowing the 88 ELDM s apart at 3250-3275 we believe because of heat friction. (8 twist) Had better luck shooting them around 3150-3175 in a 26" barrel. But those75-80 grain bullets around 3400 fps are wicked !! We ve had better luck with them staying together than the 88 s ... even with more velocity.
What bullets you using on chucks?
