In my 22-250 sako 75 i had a sweet load with the 50gr v-max, 36.5 gr varget and about 3650 fps(i dont like to push em too hard!).......so i decided to change to a moly version of the bullet which is good but i now get a big muzzle flash so should i just reduce the powder charge and get back to the same velocity as before or go for a faster burning powder as I realise that the moly bullet is sliding down the barrel that bit easier and I can pick up some more speed(although that is not my number one priority) Any thought and suggestions will be much appreciated. | ||

With the seemingly reduced barrel friction my first reaction would be a slower burning extruded powder. I probably would start with 3031, than 4895, and lastly 4064. There is an outside chance that 4350 with a magnum primer would work. My cousin is getting super small groups with his 22-250 using WCC846 which yields about a 5 foot muzzle flash. Doesn't seem to bother him a bit. roger Old age is a high price to pay for maturity!!! Some never pay and some pay and never reap the reward. Wisdom comes with age! Sometimes age comes alone.. | |||
