Question for 22-250 Rem standard or Ackley Improved version
10/01/22 05:54 AM

Gentlemen,

first of all: best wishes for a good year 2022!

I have some questions regarding a rifle in 22-250 Rem and would kindly ask the forum members for their opinion about a possible reaming / conversion of a custom rifle

existing rifle:
modified Sauer 80 action (Stützklappenverschluss = locking mechanism via protuding latches)
caliber: 22-250 Rem.
barrel with signature "Ritterbusch / Kaufbeuren" (a custom gunsmith in south Germany, now retired, famous for 416 Rigby and other big game rifles)
barrel length: 71.5 centimeters / ca. 28 inches
barrel dia.: ca. 18.5mm/ 0.75" at the muzzle, heavy barrel version
twist: 1: 14"
scope: Leupold 16x fixed, fine crosshair
shots fired: between 150 and 200 shots fired, rifle was bought and used by a long range fox hunter

Topics:
A) the barrel length is too long for me/unbalanced, 65cm/26" or even 61cm/24" should be enough ?

B) I read in Nosler reloading manual that the case stretching of the standard 22-250 case is much worse than the 22-250 Ackley improved version.

What do you think about reaming the chamber to 22-250 Ackley improved and shortening the barrel to 25"?
Both modifications will require the rifle to be proof tested again.

best regards
Rolf
