but i can shoot .442 with that little 10in xp-100 221fb. my xp has cost all my hunting friends a bunch of dollars over the past 10yrs. i love smoking them with it.
the 22-250 has been very accurate for me
i shoot 35gns of imr 3031 behind a 50gn v-max w/CCI BR primers
.....Quite possible. But did you do it during LOAD DEVELOPMENT as well, as was stated by the other poster previously? And remember, it "never shot OVER .442 with anything"...
I've spent far too many years on the bench both loading and shooting to swallow that one. Sorry.
