Although not very scientific, I can say that when shooting them side by side, my 700V in 22/250 gets hot a lot faster than my 700V in .222 Rem. Probably about 600 or more fps faster and a 5 grain heavier bullet but I think it is logical that heat would contribute to faster wear. Peter.
The load that has really caught my attention is the 75 g A-MAX with varget. The AMAX has a BC of. 435 it really seems to be a great all purpose round short/long bucks the wind and it explodes g-hogsjust gotta wait for em to get off of backorder from midway.
JMO Varget is way too fast of a burn rate for this combo, I have had much better luck with IMR4831 and VVN160, also RL19.
Varget is great in the 223 with a 75gr V-Max not so much in a 22-250
