What are people using in their 22/250s for varmints?

Grabbed a T3 Varmint and will work it with factory 1:14" for now. Rabbits and foxes, shot for splat and pop effect.

Do I start with the 40s at 4000+, an old fashioned 55gr because I have 2 barrels worth ... or the old reliable Sierra 52/53gr MK?

Decisions decisions... :lol:

40 grain varmageddons or 30 grain Bergers (if you can find any).

I have some 35gr Nosler lead free BTs that'll be given their head at some stage. 😁

My BDL varmint has always been fed 50gn v-maxes, but when my current stash runs out I have a box of z-maxes to start using.

I would try 40 nosler , 50-55 vmax ,ballistic tip or blitz kings flat out and pick which ever one shoots the best
52 sierras are too hard for good expansion compared to the others
