heavy .22 bullets
What are some of the larger offerings? I know of 80 gr. Sierras and Bergers. Anything in the 90-100 gr range? Thanks.

Jimmy Knox (JLK bullets) is making a 90 grain javelin but it requires a 1-6.5" twist to spin it. By all indications, it's doing very well at 1000 yard service rifle applications.

I haven't been able to find JLK online yet. Any contact info as I know he's pretty popular among the long range shooters? Thanks.

Sorry for the tardy reply, YD. Try this:

JLK Bullets 414 Turner Road Dover AR
72837 (501) 331-4194

I got that off Da Net, so it may or may not be current info.

If I remember right the new area code is 479.
Also you can get 105gr A-Maxes, just depends on what you want to do. PRL's are the best in 103's

Coondawggy, i think that A-Max is 75 gr., the 24 cal is 105.

What kind of rifle are you shooting? Do you know the barrel twist? Most .22-250s, not all, are 1 in 14" twist. They'll shoot up to a 60gr. bullet well but nothing larger. It makes quite a bit of difference in terms of accuracy. Best wishes.
