    I suggest you abandon the usual idea of shooting light weight 22 cal bullets
    at high velocity ( 50 - 55 grn) for example and consider the 75 grn. HORNADY ELD in a 1 in 8" twist barrel. I like high B.C bullets that hold there velocity over considerable distances compared to lighter bullets that shed speedfairly rapidly. (Put the relevant date into the Hornady Ballistics Calculator and you will see the difference) The slipperyer the bullet is through the air the better. I love 22 Creedmoor. 3470fps mv.( 41.7 grns 2209 ( H4350) 2209 is H4350. Still doing near 2500fps at 500 yards. 22/250 Ackley is good to. About 3350 in my rifle ( 75 ELD) 38 grns.RL17. Check it out. All the best with your project.
