There’s nothing more enjoyable than watching bullets go through the same hole on a target.

Very impressive results without load development. The Lee dies delivered great results. Always a pleasure to watch...thanks for the details too. 😎

Love the 22-250, great video.

Hornady Spire points in 22-250 was my go to bullet for PD's with 40 grains of WW760. In fact I burned up 3 barrels with it.

I enjoy the process you go through, keep it up! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Love your videos C. D. This is no exception, thanks for what you do! Cheers...

That is a keeper bullet for sure and best of all it's cheap too. I ended up in a group of goodies with a bunch of winchester 243 80 grain SP bullets for almost nothing. I prayed leading up to load development that they would shoot ok, and wow, they shoot great.

After nearly 50 years of playing with the 22-250, my initial go to load with any new gun is 34.5 gr. 4895 under a Hornady 55 spire, cci standard primer. USUALLY, the results are very satisfying and tweaks minimal to find the sweet spot. It appears you found it already.

Wow!!! That’s one good shooting 250. Good job CD.

The 250 is actually the parent cartridge that the 22-250 descends from -- also known as the 250-3000.

@@Duke_of_Prunes lol I know that. I call the 22-250 that. 90% of the people don’t even know about the 250.

Love Your videos Sir . Greetings from New Orleans !

Stumbled upon this channel, really glad I did.

You gotta love it when your handload nails it on the first round! Nice shooting. If I was a prarie dog, I'd move to New York and live on Long Island. 😉

I bet it sure is satisfying, to find a good shooting combination 1st time out.. 10 shots and call it a day. If a person could do that every time or every other time out, think of the dollars saved..However you'd get to miss the range time.. Or so it would seem.. God bless you and your loved ones Godspeed

Way Cool, thanks CD!

Wow...what an upgrade

I have been struggling with seeing my heartbeat in the scope as well on full magnification, I found that placing the stock off the ball of my shoulder, closer to my chest solved the problem. I think I was sitting too sideways at the bench. That rifle is shooting really well regardless.

I have been very happy with Barnes Varmiator 40gr with H380 powder in my Win. M70 1:14 twist. No worries about ricochet and it does a job on p-dogs and coyotes. Not hot loads, chronoed at 3900fps. VERY pleased with the Barnes products.

I like Lee Dies...never been disappointed with their Quality ........N E V E R...!

Great group !! That'll do P-Rats right.

sweet, sweet rig.

Love that rifle…you videos are great…

Nice shooting Boss. I am moving away from Vmax and alike. Starting to get very expensive here in the UK and doing fine with hollow points or softnose heads. Not used Ballistic tips for a long time now. All the best sir. Frank.

You better put a security guard on that rifle now that You’ve shown the world how good it shoots!!!!!

Nice groups!

Hell ya! That combo shoots great! Is that a flat-base bullet? Lots of traffic on the road today. Thanks for posting on YT.

Yep a keeper

My favorite pdog exploder.

Need a suppressor cover it will stop most of that heat

I like my stainless steel 220 swift shoots those kind of groups at 200 meters

Nice

Stick with the second group CD ..1 or 2 clicks left and you are on a winner ..JR

Nice shooting CD, I have the same problem at times, watching my heart beat with the cross hairs, and trying to time my trigger pull. What weight bullet are you using.

Is that a 24" or a 26" barrel? It's one hell of a shooter to put em in there like that with no load development. Imagine if you go ahead with load development... it'll shoot one ragged hole.

Where is that range located? It must be open to the public, I always see vehicles going by while you're shooting. Good groups today.

I started out with IMR 4064 36.0 GRAINS.. 50 GRAIN REMINGTON HP MATCH CCI 250 BENCHREST PRIMER..MY MODEL 700 VARMINT SHOT THIS LOAD WITH EXCEPTIONAL ACCURACY

I know about the heart beat! Sometimes it a mother to deal with

Need to come up and shoot at the range here. Going to be in the mid-70s.

Love to, but I don't think I can make it on a 2 day weekend.

No load development necessary! I shoot 50gr Accutips out of my heavy 22-250 and frequently get half moa groups even at 600 yards.

Cavedweller1959, I love your videos buddy. I just built a savage axis 17 Remington with a boyds stock. Cant get it to feed from the mag. Any advice on finding proper mag depth?

I just have to guess you started with a 223 rem Axis. What happens if you feed it 223 ammo? I can't see there being a big difference but you never know. Without seeing the rifle , it's hard to say.

We like all your video have you shoot sierra vermonter bullets 22cal. Spitzer blitz

34 grains of varget under A Hornady 55 spire point keeps the dogs in big trouble.

not bad shooting--that'll nok their eye out

Shooting between heartbeats...lol

What was the powder and charge for this 22-250? I have a few v-max and my .223 don’t like them.

@@cavedweller1959 yep...I looked again. I should’ve looked closer. I have a 788(22-250) that shoots similar groups. Look of the grain on the stock, thought it was a 788 or 722....just curious. Thanks for the answer CD, best of luck on the dogs.

I like your videos, but I don't have a "good set of dies" either. My Steven's 22-250 shoots sub 3/4 moa 10 shot groups on average. My Tikka Varminter shoots even better, at 1/2 moa for 10 shot group average. I use 50gr v-max's and H4895 in both rifles. Good video's, but like a lot of guys, you think you need to have precision dies to produce precision ammo for your hunting rifle. That's just not the case, as they are not necessary. Your first 5 shot group at 7/8" center to center is not real impressive for that heavy of a rifle. Your second group looks much better. Keep up your good glass bedding videos.

Nice 4 foot barrel lol

Is the stock factory?

For those that only shoot a few hundred or a couple thousand a year, it's probably not an issue.

It's a keeper.
