if you load a 257 weatherby with varmint weight bullets, you can get up around the 4000 fps.
when the nosler 55 grain 6mm/243 bullets came out, i got the 6x284 up to 4300 fps, but they weren't making it to the target. you could see the tan puffs of smoke when they disintegrated. :grin:

Lol.
I've been working up some loads for my rem 700 in 22 250 but haven't really maxed anything out.
(I'd like the barrel to last a little while)
I do have a very accurate Nosler Varmageddon loading at something like 3600 or 3700 fps tho.
 
I may be overstating the velocity a little since I'm pulling from memory but I'll pull the box and see if it's called out on there. Reporting back tomorrow :)

Either way it's fast and flat shooting.

what powder are you using?
one of my shooting/varmint hunting parter's had a 22-250 and then he had it converted to 22-250 ackley improved. really gave it a boost. didn't have to change the barrel.

Weatherby's claim to fame was always having the fastest for caliber cartridge available.

I love .25 caliber rifles. Great for crossover between varmints and deer...and usually very accurate

I'll have to check....i think it was one of the Alliant "reloader" variants
 
So, I may have scratched my itch for a 1911 today.

It's a 4.25" barrel, not a 5", but the local gun shop had it for $699, which is $200 less than Gander Mountain has it on sale for.

Ruger SR1911.

Unfortunately, it'll be at least Saturday before I get to shoot it.

Nice score...I have a friend who has one and he likes it.
I shot a buddy's Sig Emperor Scorpion the other week. Talk about some 1911 envy.

i didn't know Ruger was making a 1911. and at a good price.
the 4.25" barrel is right in line with a Colt Combat Commander (i've had three).

Legal if you have a NFA stamp.
Look into a trust for max flexibility but no matter how you do it, buy the time you thread your 'host' or get new ones, go through the process & buy your suppressor, you're going elbow deep into your wallet. You can get a trust going to as low as $99
