  • The .22-250 Remington is one of the most popular centerfire rifle cartridges available. It was first developed in the late 1940s and has been a favorite among varmint hunters ever since. This cartridge is capable of pushing a 50 grain bullet to velocities over 4000 fps, making it ideal for long range shots on small animals such as squirrels, coyotes, and foxes.When handloading with slower burning powders, the .22-250 can achieve even higher velocities than factory loads and launch heavier bullets for larger game like deer or hogs. The case length is also compatible with some AR-15 platform rifles, allowing for versatility when it comes to hunting platforms.

    When aggregating the ballistic performance of 145 suitable bullets for this caliber, you get an average powder charge of 33.5gr | 2.17g , an average muzzle velocity (V0) of 3444fps | 1050m/s , and an average muzzle energy (E0) of 1928 Joule.
