Buzz,
Are looking at the Field Craft in 22-250?
Lightweight 1 in 7 twist 3" Mag Box 18" threaded barrel for the suppressor you have on order
Dang it. I'm starting to talk myself in to one.

My 1:8 Tikka shoots 77 match kings very well. I’ve got some 80grain Eld-M but the first 77 loadi tired shot so well I never even opened them.

77gr TMK and MK are GREAT bullets
Scott, I love the Fieldcraft, only worry is the pencil barrel heating up too fast. I also hear 2019 they are chambering it in .224 Valkyrie

Yeah, I'd pass on the V-8, waiting on the 6 cylinder to come out next year.

The 224V will not do more than the .22-250 out of a bolt action. I don't know how many times, or ways this needs to be explained.

Can't go wrong with a 250. I like the 55 grain Sierra game kings for hogs and deer.

What did you buy? Please tell me (using Jason's logic) you went with the V10 and bought a 220 swift. The OG fast.22

I would try the 64 Nosler BSB or the 65 Grain Sierra Gameking in that 1/9 twist .22-250.
I have an Uncle who has hunted exclusively with the .220 Swift for the past 40 years, typically shooting handloaded 55 Grain Sierras with IMR-4064. Wont shoot anything else at deer or hogs. He says if you put it in the right place it works. I have tried to get him to try heavier bullets but when you have killed enough deer to fill a supertanker you get set in your ways I guess lol.
Just my .02, LeonCarr
