This has been the caliber I want in an AR platform. I've always wondered why more companies don't make them. I've heard stories of feeding issues. How's yours feed
 
it feeds great I don't reload so I have not just tried to empty the mag as fast as I could but just target shooting I had no problems this gun only holds 5 rounds and the mag is a special one only made by Olympic arms it a great gun and I have all ways wanted a 22-250 if you need more info let me know
 
Nice shooter. The problem with the 22-250 in a AR is the cartridge has a lot of taper so the mag needs to be curved. There isn't much room in the AR mag well to accommodate a steep curve thus the reputation for feeding problems. Wondering if the ai version would be easier to work with?

At any rate nice rifle and nice shooting!
 
thanks man Olympic opens up the mag well on the lower on the umar it is quite a bit longer so I think they got it figgerd out at least I hope so but mine feeds fine and shoots good I just need to start hand loading and I think it will shoot great
 
the orange bulls are 1" the 50gr winchester one was just over 2" and the 55gr hornady one was just over 1-1/4" not the best but only 21 rounds down the tube so it should get better
