Factory Dummy Cartridge History:
Most all “Factory” dummy cartridges are dyed brown, have no gunpowder with either no primer or a drilled inert primer, many have no primer pocket or no hole in the primer pocket and in rimfire dummy cartridges, in most cases, will have a hole drilled in the head to indicate a dummy cartridge. They are all inert, not live and will not fire in a firearm.
Factory dummy cartridges are used by firearms manufactures, gunsmiths and many firearms owners to safely test the firearm’s actions. The military also uses them for drills and parades, and some dummy cartridges may be chromed.
Any hand loaders can produce cheap dummy cartridges by not loading a primer or gunpowder into a cartridge, but normally only factory dummy cartridges are dyed brown and used for safety reasons.

History of the .22-250 Remington cartridge:
The  22-250 Remington began as a wildcat by necking down the250-3000 Savage (also called the250 Savage) to .22″ caliber, by Harvey Donaldson in 1934.
The 250 Savage was designed by Charles Newton in 1915 and named it the  250-3000 because it was a 25 (250) caliber, and would go 3,000 Feet per Second.
Somehow Remington got the rights to the design and started production under the 22-250 Remington label and introduced it to the public in 1965.
I personally load and shoot this caliber and it is a great cartridge and easily produces 4,000 + Feet per Second velocities with 45 to 55 grain projectiles.
It is one of the best all round varmint cartridges and has outstanding accuracy.
