I just picked up my first handi-rifle and it's chambered in my first 22-250. The excitement is overwhelming! My question is simple, does anyone out there have this combination and if you do what is a good factory bullet to start my testing with?

If you mean factory ammo, not bullets as in handloads, the winchester whitebox 45gr JHP is spose to shoot good in em, though I haven't tried it yet. I have only shot the rem UMC 50gr in my Ultra fluted .22-250, it shot 1"-'1ΒΌ" with a few groups slightly smaller. Don't expect best accuracy out of the box, it may take some break in time to get it shooting best. Check out the Graybeard Outdoors NEF/H&R Centerfire forum for lots of info on getting the most from your new rifle...read the stickys!!
