Akeld Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Hello all, I have a 1:9 LW fitted to my .22-250, I'm not having much luck with 75Amax and I think the twist is too fast for my old 52Amax/Varget load, rifle is (well was) used everyday for vermin, fox with the occasional Scottish roe, with reloading supplies in such short supply this rebarrel is proving to be a nightmare, any suggestions greatly appreciated, Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onehole Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Yeah 1/8 needed for 75,s to be honest,,,,,,best to keep as heavy as possible so there,s 55g Nosler bt,s 55 Sierra blitzkings,,60g Vmax,,,,,Reckon the Noslers may be a good compromise as I think they are a bit tougher in the Jacket and may well be better for Roe? If you want a real cracker for accuarcy and easy to tune then probably Berger 73g BT,,,stunning!! in 1/9 223.I may well buy a truck load of these before they cull any more off in the future.Best of luck,,,Onehole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akeld Posted July 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Thanks for the suggestions, I was looking at the Noslers, I did try some bergers but again mixed results. It appears I may have spoke to soon, just realised my callipers are giving dodgy readings, switched to the spare set and redone my seating depths and now groups are showing promise , got to love reloading Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akeld Posted July 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2013 Just an update, it would appear my calipers were giving me dodgy readings on seating depth. Made a few tweaks and the Amax are showing promise now, hurrah . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
