22-250 AI with a fast twist barrel

[JJB11B]

Thinking I want to play with running 77gr + weight projectiles out of a 22-250AI I have a lot of brass from years of owning several 22-250’s fire forming of hydroforming this brass would be super simple. That’s why I’m thinking of 22-250 AI over something like 22 cheetah or 22 creedmoor. Anyone have any thoughts on this? Just sounds like a great long range toy and coyote gun

To each his own but for me, new projects/builds get new brass.  Also, the easy button definitely favors the 22 Creedmoor.

I’m currently waiting for a 22-250AI 1/8 barrel for my Ruger mkII. I debated between the CM & AI, but in the end the availability of 22-250 brass was the deciding factor. I’ll buy new brass to fire form with.

just depends on if I can find it when I need it. I’ve seen 22-250 Lapua brass intermittently but I have. A lot of 1x fired stuff that would at least get me to the range

1-8 will do well. I’ve shot  a bunch of 77’s and 88’s through .224 8 twists.

I shoot 70gr RDF's in my 1-8" 22-250ai.  I have 85gr RDF's to try, but the 70s shoot great and fast like a laser with RL26.  I built it before the 22cm was around, I probably would have went that route if I were building now.  Both great cartridges though.

I received my 22-250 about a month ago. Haven’t shot it a lot, but did find a couple loads it likes with RL 16 and 80gr ELDs. All are 5 shot groups.
