A longer, heavier bullet in any diameter needs a faster twist to be properly stabilized. Most factory .22-250s are intended for use with 50 and 55 grain bullets, and come with a 1×14” twist as standard equipment. In fact, with just a few exceptions, most high-velocity .22 center fires have either a 1×12” or 1×14” barrel. For best results, confirm that your twist is 1×10” or faster.
