| The 60 grain Partitions stabilize just fine in all of the 1-14" .22 centerfires I've tried them in, so if they don't shoot well in your 1-12" barrel it is the fault of something other than the twist. |

| I get good accuracy shooting 60 grain Partitions in 1 in 12" ROT Remington 700 barrels and would expect Stevens 200s to be as good. When I put together a Savage 110 series rifle in 22-250, I like to buy 1 in 9" ROT 223 take-off barrels and rechamber them.

| +1 on what Stonecreek said. I had them shoot just fine in my 1:14 Remingtons, although some folks have not. They shoot sub-MOA in my Savage Model 11 22-250 with the 1:12 twist. Load them up and go hunting. Bob |

| I have a 22-250 with a 1-16" twist, and it will not shoot 60 gn bullets well. It does shoot the 55 gn ones. And, after reading many postings on the subject, I think the 1-14" and faster will handle the 60 gn bullets OK. Your 1-12" twist should do you well w/60 grainers.

| I have a Savage .22-250 Stryker .22-250 15" bbl. It shoots 55gr Rem HPs in under .5 MOA groups. 64gr. WW loads wont hit wihtin 15" of another! In my 223s, 60 Gr Noslers @ a/o 3Kps shoot well. Your 22-250 may wll shoot well too. I have lots of long barrel .224 experience, but just 2 short barrel adventures-.221 Fireball and .22-250 |
