Why did you go to a 22-250?I've been using a 22-250 the last 2 years but was using a 24 inch White Oak 22 Nosler before that. I was shooting 52 gr. ELDM's at close to 3600. It puts them down as good as a 22 250.
Just a change of pace really. I figured out the AR 22 250 magazine problem so decided to build one.Why did you go to a 22-250?
I got out of the 22-250 because I had so much trouble getting them to feed out of a magazine into a bolt gun. I may build a 22gt eventually. I think it's plenty and gives you almost double the barrel life of the 22cm. They seem to feed really well too..Just a change of pace really. I figured out the AR 22 250 magazine problem so decided to build one.
I reload so don't deal with the up front factory ammo cost but I shot the Valkyrie a while to. It has a .5 grain gain in case capacity compared to the 22 ARC and is a good little coyote round but can't measure up to the 22 Nosler for fast light bullet hunting. Long range heavy bullets the Valkyrie/ ARC is better.Brass cost? You can buy nosler loaded varmint ammo for $.84 per round on ammo seek. Hornady's cheapest loading for the 22arc is currently $.91. When you get done firing that round, then you either have a piece of once fired nosler brass, or a piece of once fired hornady brass. You'll get 10-15 firings out of that nosler brass that you paid less for to begin with, and maybe you'll get 5 out of the hornady brass, if you're lucky.
22arc with a 53gr v-max from a 24" barrel is 3,400fps. See photo below.
22 nosler with a 53gr v-max is 3,450fps but from an 18" barrel, see photo below.
If you want to shoot varmint bullets, the nosler blows the arc out of the water. If you want to shoot long heavies, the arc is your choice.
Be careful who you get advice from, as some people talk without having any idea what they are talking about.
I wonder if you know that everyone on this site cringes at everything you post. A chip on my shoulder? You made 5 different posts attacking me for making a joke about a Chinese scope. You have no credibility. You don't even understand the difference between the cartridges or how they apply to use case. You realize this is predator masters, so....you know... that frames the conversation. Maybe some of the Chicoms you worship are invested in the 22arc components or something. That might clear things up a bit.No shortage of lil men with chips on their shoulders here ....
here is your brass for 22 Nosler ..... NOT LOADED AMMO !! who in the fuq buys loaded ammo
for a custom rig ?? I kinda thought most here were reloaders ??
Average cost approaches a buck or more per case..
