Well, thought I'd get some expert, constructive opinions from a group of guys that ought to know what they're talking about....right?
Just got done trying out a series of loads in my new .22-250 Ackley. Started out with 35.5 gr of IMR-4064 and ended with 41.9 gr. These are four shot groups at 100yds, it was a little windy, variable right to left but not much.
I've included picks of the groups and have picked one to do a work-up around. Think I'll go up and down by a few tenths of a grain to see what happens. Anyone want to guess which load I've picked? Or maybe there's a load that YOU would pick? OHH yea, these are 1" squares.

Well, it looks like 4064 is accurate enough? Curious why you don't list any data? Like bullet and bullet weight? Like barrel length and twist? And maker? What brass are you using and are these fireforming loads?
I'm going to guess the bullet is fairly light because I don't see how you could get that speed with 4064 which is too fast for the 22-250Improved.
Good hunting. El Bee
