[QUOTE="sable tireur, post: 1203941, member: 27307"] PredatorDown, I can't agree with you more. I've been working with fast .22 centerfires for the last couple of dozen years for the speed and explosive results at longer ranges for varmints. The .22-243 is a fine cartridge, I take nothing away from it. However, it is possible to work with the .22 Creedmoor in order to have the same brass to use and not have to switch. I save a step by using the 6mm Creedmoor brass instead of the 6.5mm but there is little difference. The performance is just as good if not just a tad better than the .22-243 version. There are several powders which reach excellent velocities and there are a couple which will slow you down a touch and give great performance while operating a little cooler. IMR-7828SSC (yes, I know but it works!) Norma MRP Hodgdon H-4831SC Hodgdon Hybrid 100-V Enjoy the experience! [/QUOTE]
