Frequently Asked Questions
Hornady 22-250 Ammo 50 Grain for Sale

What is the most accurate 22-250 ammo?

Accuracy depends on your rifle's twist rate and barrel. Commonly accurate loads include 52-grain Hornady Match, 55-grain Nosler BT, and 55-grain Sierra BTHP. Powders like IMR 4064 and H380 pair well with 55-grain bullets. Test several loads in your specific rifle to find the best performer.

What is the best weight bullet for a 22-250?

Best weight depends on your rifle's twist rate. A 1:12 or 1:14 twist stabilizes 40-50 grain bullets well. A faster 1:10 twist handles 55-grain bullets effectively. Since individual rifles vary, testing a few weights remains the most reliable way to find your best load.

How far does a 22-250 drop at 500 yards?

Sighted in at 200 yards, a 55-grain .22-250 load typically drops around 38–40 inches at 500 yards. Lighter 40-grain bullets drop more; heavier loads drop slightly less. Muzzle velocity, scope height, and zero distance all affect the exact figure.

What distance should you sight in a 22-250?

Most shooters zero the .22-250 at 100 or 200 yards. A 100-yard zero sighted 1-2 inches high keeps you on target out to 250-300 yards for varmint hunting. A 200-yard zero suits longer shots. Choose based on your typical shooting distances.

What's the best 22-250 bullet for deer?

For deer, the 60-grain Nosler Partition offers reliable controlled expansion. The 63-grain Sierra SMP and 70-grain Speer are also solid choices. Keep shots within 200-300 yards. Avoid light varmint bullets under 55 grains, as they often fragment rather than penetrate adequately on deer.

Which kicks harder, 243 or 22-250?

The .243 Winchester hits harder. It fires heavier bullets (70–105gr vs .22-250's 40–60gr), delivering more foot-pounds of energy and better retained energy at distance. The .22-250 is faster but lighter. For varmints, either works; for deer-sized game, the .243 is the clear choice.
