I will have to check the ROT on my 222's. I have a mod70 ans a 788. The 22-250 is 1/14 so these might just be a tad heavy.

I don't see why a 22/250 wouldn't stabilise this round with a 1:14 twist rate. It has a ton more speed than a 223 or 222.

AZZA'S HJ47 ,

Thanks for the hints on projectile info. Have the info now and also appreciate the info re charge weights with 2206H from everyone. Keen to do some testing starting about 22.8 and moving up. Will report my progress, when the ranges open up again, don't have places to load test with out them.

Finally got to the range and tested a few weights of or 2206H with these projectiles. Covid stuffed me around for months. Shot this group last Saturday at 100 metres. Not too shabby. It will do me anyway. Actually found that I can not upload photos, probably lack of knowledge. Ended up with four shots into a 5 cent size group. By the way TassieTiger my optimal weight was 23.5 gn also. Thanks to previous people who have assisted with knowledge, made it much easier.
