.22-250 Remington Trajectory Calculator
The .22-250 Remington stands as one of the most respected varmint cartridges ever developed. These default settings demonstrate its impressive capabilities: a lightweight 45-grain bullet traveling at a blistering 3,950 fps, with a G1 ballistic coefficient of .175. The standard 100-yard zero makes this an ideal setup for everything from prairie dogs to coyotes.
While these baseline numbers showcase the cartridge's potential, individual rifles and loads can vary significantly. Environmental factors become especially important when shooting this fast, light bullet at extended ranges. Our calculator allows you to account for everything from wind drift to shooting angles, and even atmospheric conditions that can affect these lighter projectiles more noticeably than their heavier counterparts.
Below you'll find a detailed trajectory chart and table showing performance data in 25-yard increments out to 500 yards. Need to adjust for your particular load or hunting conditions? Just click the Modify Calculation button and input your specific data. Whether you're shooting a custom load or dealing with challenging environmental conditions, you'll get precise trajectory information tailored to your exact setup.
