I just picked up a new Bergara 22-250 with a 1-9 twist. With the limited selections I have available I’ve been trying to work up a decent load for this winter. For bullets I’m working with 60 gr vmax and a nosler 40 gr ballistic tip. The powders I have are varget and 8208 xbr. So far I’ve had only so so results I loaded up three loads each bullet using varget. The 60 vmax gave me one load with low sd/es with a fair 3/4 inch group but at only around 3300 FPS or so. The 40 gr noslers all gave me terrible sd/es numbers using varget but on paper still shot between 3/4 to an inch five shot groups. All things considered I’m trying not to burn through to many components i can’t replace. So I guess I’m asking if anyone has had any particular luck using similar to what I’ve got, with regards to 22-250. Like should I try the 8208 with the 40’s or will they end up splashing horribly. Also is it worth shooting the 60s downloaded. Am I just nerding over it needlessly?
