Just wondering if the nosler 40 gr. bullets would shoot in a 1:14 twist in a 22-250?
B-tip or the new varmegedon bullets.
 
I shot some Winchester Supreme 40 gr BT's through my 700 22-250 with a 1:14 twist and they shot under MOA.

Been years since I had a 22-250, but shoot the 40's in others. Even with the design difference's of the two bullets mentioned, it's serves memory (dangerous), that the 40gr./14" twist, ought to be darn near a perfect match.

Yup 220 swift at 4100 fps +




Have run the same bullet in my Swift at close to 4400 fps with similar accuracy. I don't do it any more though and it was a safe load in my rifle barrel at the time. New barrel likes 55 BTips but ain't nuthin wrong with a 40 at over 4000 out of the muzz.
 
My buddy shoots them in his Savage 22-250 and I believe it is a 1-14 twist.
Shoots the same as fotis and his 220 swift
