I have been shooting my 22-250 with Nosler 50 grain bullets, 36.0g of Varget and CCI BR-2 Primers. Also using Winchester brass. If you only neck size your casings your rifle will chamber harder then normal. I was told that you can only neck size your brass so many times before you have to...

I finally found a good load for my 22-250 using 50g Nosler BT. I used 36.0g of Varget. I put 10 shots within 3/4" at 100 yards. Plenty good for hunting coyotes. I haven't shot over 100 yards, but I anticipate no problems with accuracy. Back on the shelf with the 55 grainers at least until I...

You may want to check into the 22-243 Middlestead. It is faster then the 220 swift and shoots very flat. Been told it can shoot a 50 grain Nosler around 4300 fps with deadly accuracy. You can also get a 40 grain bullet just smokin'. Very accurate rifle if built right. I currently have a...

I fell into a trap purchasing a 17HMR rimfire for shooting coyotes. The gun shop I purchased it from said it would kill them dead out to 200 yards. This is so far from the truth. My first outing I had with the gun I had a coyote 75 yards broadside and I put one right behind the shoulder...

My bad. I should have stated 22-243 Middlestead not 22-250 Middlestead. I'm sure that will make more sense.

My varmint rifle consists of a Savage Model 12 BTVS 22-250. I shoot Nosler 50 grainers with 36.0g Varget and CCI BR-2 Primers. The 22-250 seems to be the rifle of choice for varmints. My next rifle is going to be the same model just chambered out to a 22-250 Middlestead. I believe it is a...

I will be using these loads strictly for coyotes. Sounds like the 50 grainers are pretty easy on the pelts as I do save them. Do most varmint hunters FL size or just neck size their brass?

My 22-250 has a 1-12 twist. I figured the 55 grainers would stabilize. I will have to try the 50 grainers and see what happens.

I have been trying to find a load that groups well using 55g. Nosler BT and Varget powder for my Savage Model 12 22-250. I can't seem to get a real good grouping with that combination. Has anyone had any success using these together? I was thinking about trying RL-15 powder next. Also I...

Thanks for all the information. Here's what I end up with for a load. Fireformed Winchester Casings CCI BR-2 Primers Nosler 40g BT Bullet Varget Powder 34g OAL of 2.350" Distance to Lands .159" Here are two 5 shot groups with this load. These were shot off a bi-pod at 100 yards.

I'm new to reloading and I just started prepping my first lot of .22-250 rounds. I purchased the Lee Anniversery Kit along with the Lee Deluxe Die Set. I will be using Varget powder with Nosler 40g and 55g bullets along with Winchester casings. I'm using fireformed cases that have been only...
