The 22-250 is a necked down 250-3000

necked?


Like in a hot tub?

Hey leave your cousin alone,... Sorry Dan,.... Slightly shortened, the shoulder is reset and then the neck is shrunk down to a .23 sized hole (accounting for the flaring step, prior to bullet seating,...

An advantage for long range shooting in CA, etc. is the hilly terrain, and very dry. You can see your bullets hit in the back drop. Then adjust accordingly.

My best shot was a flying helium kids ballon, at 1500 yards. Third shot. With .223 open sights. Shot 20 feet up and 20 feet into the wind.

With witness.

33 'rd shot from a new mini 14.

Now I'm just trying to nail the broad on the side of the barn.

But does it hold more powder than the 250-3000??? (number meaning 25 caliber bullet propelled at 300 fps)
Like the 270 holds more than the 30-06.(meaning 30 cal developed in 1906) replacing the 30-40 kraig...

Isn't a 22 250 about 4200 fps?

I wish I had a nice gun.

:hmm3grin2orange:

I don't remember, but IIRC, it's a bit less... Either way it's damn hot. Only the .220 Swift is hotter (outside of proprietary wildcats) in the .22 realm...

Depends on who's loading the round... Can they? yes... Do they?? ~

 

[RVALUE]

I remember the discussion around the wagons in the late '60s that bullets dissintergrated at about 4000 fps.

I believe the .22-250 holds around 44 grains of water and the .250-300 is around 46. Paltry but noticeable difference.

Isn't a 22 250 about 4200 fps?

With a 40gr bullet out of 26" tube, yes. You go 62 or higher, you're closer to 3200-3500fps again, out of a 26" tube. Figure about 75-150 fps loss per inch below that. That's also using really slow burning powders to take advantage of the case capacity and not have an excessive pressure spike.

Did you catch that I got a 346?

 

[pdqdl]

... I could see better then with my naked eyes than I could with my $ 10 bushnell 8 x.

I thought he was full of BS, so I took a gander thru his 7x Zeiss'. I could see clear as a bell. (she was mangy)

There is a huge difference in optics.


Just saying.

I'm not much of a gun enthusiast, and I am not at all familiar with current accessories. Does Leica make any scopes? The clarity of the optics (historically) has been almost unmatched.

I would think they would make an excellent scope, providing they make one at all.

I don't know which I'd rather have; a 346xp (again) or a .348 Winchester in a model 88...:msp_w00t:

If you want to start a discussion, explain to me how a muzzleoader has a 'more violent' recoil than a higher power rifle.

Muzzle loader scopes are supposedly tougher.

So when are we going to have an ARKSMOTXOK GTG SHOOT?!? I think it's long overdue,... All of us together might have 2-3 guns,...:hmm3grin2orange::hmm3grin2orange::hmm3grin2orange:

 

[pdqdl]

I guess that covers the question, eh?

I always wanted one of their binoculars, but I was never willing to fork out the bucks.
