Warning! Notes: Test rifle was a Remington 700 custom sporter with the 10-inch twist 24-inch barrel. Chamber was slightly throated: standard .22-250 throating allows 2.37-inch overall length for the 70-grain Speer spitzer, while test rifle allows 2.40-inch OAL for the same bullet. Leupold Vari-X 6.5-20x scope was used, set at 16x. (Handloader Issue 125)
