sir-slots-alot Posted August 28, 2010 Report Share Posted August 28, 2010 Gents Not sure if this is the right place to post this video. I must admit I prefered the 300 - 500 -yrd sections. Anyway I digress. Yesterday evening conditions were perfect for varminting - light winds and plenty of evening sunshine, which had the bunnies out in numbers. My mate Dave and I , took along our .17 rems and I brought along my 22.250 for company. A quick check on the crono confirmed that the 25 grn Hollow point are screaming to the target at 4050 fps & the 75 grn Amax were trundling along at 3360 fps. An excellent outing capped off with a couple of fox which Dave dispatched with the 17 rem without a twitch. A couple of vids that I thought I would share with you .... hope you enjoy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=70a8Bf53xmQ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=biqx80Sf9zM ATB Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronin Posted August 28, 2010 Report Share Posted August 28, 2010 Sweet shooting Alan, just goes to show how an "inaccurate" cartridge such as the 22-250 can perform Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Streeker59 Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 I didn't realise you could use bullets as heavy as 75 grn in a 22-250 considering a rifle in this caliber would typically have a rifling twist rate of 1 in 14". How is it that a 22-250 will stabilise a bullet that heavy yet a .223 needs a 1 in 8" or 1 in 9" to stabilise the same bullet ? Oh.. Cracking shooting by the way...lol...

It has a Douglas 1 in 9 twist tube fitted. I had the rifle specially built to hurl those badboys Cheers Streeker ATB Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sir-slots-alot Posted September 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 what vidio set up do you use I use a Panasonic T55. seem pretty good for the price - but I know #### all about video cams. Where has the 300- 500 yard clubs gone anywas I thought the those sections should have been kept. They where certainly used more then some the the sections that replaced them ATB Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
