I have a 22-250 Winchester model 70  XTR with a bull barrel and tri-pod. I have 3-12X scope. I was wondering if some of you guys do any precision shooting with the 22-250?  I'm looking for powder/primer/bullet loads. Thanks, Gary.

Update on my 22-250. Here are a couple of pics. I should be able to shoot a 1/4 in. at 100 yds. I'm a little above that. Thanks Shoot for the load information.

try a few different brand primers, that load is usually a one ragged hole load in my 22-250's and a few others.

I'll try the different primers too. I'm sure that's me pulling it off a little. I really need to put my target scope on it. It has the very thin cross-hairs. Thanks, Shoot!
