May also be worth mentioning the bearing surface length on heavy vs light bullets. Theoretically the longer bearing surface should be applying friction/wear slightly longer than bullets with a shorter bearing surface.
Thoughts on 22-250AI Fast Twist?

20 cal bullets really don't do what I'm wanting. 80 grn bullets do. I'd be I'm pressed watching a 55gr bullet of any kind be consistent out to a 1000.
With the ease of changing barrels on a savage action are you really out that much if it only lasts 1500 rounds? Pre made barrels aren't exactly pricy, my Shilen was $300 from Midway iirc.
Smokin250,
I'll have my 22-250AI at Rayner's this weekend on Saturday if you want to check it out or discuss anything. I'm running 80gr Nosler Custom Competition bullets and they seem to work pretty well. They are running 3,250 as a forming load and a bit over 3,300 as an AI using H4831sc.

YES I will be there! Thanks. We should be getting up there around 1-2? Right at end of the shoot. PM me your name BTW haha.
SUIScide...that was my exact thoughts....if I burn one up in 1500 +/- rnds....at least I had fun for a bit. I really just wanted a little info before I jump in.
