[QUOTE="Groundhogshooter, post: 1109500, member: 91034"] I gotta go with the 222 if I could only have one caliber/ they are tried and true with their root going back to bench rest competition. I have tried 223 and the hot rod 223 WSSM, heck of a round but very finicky to load. I have a 700 Rem that has taken out 1000 plus woodchucks over the years and still shoots 3/4 moa with handloads. I have had a couple of 243's and I agree they are a great round, just a bit rough on brass. My new favorite long range caliber is 25-06. My Ruger 77 with 26 in bbl launches 75 VMAXes at 3650. It thumps coyotes real hard. Chucks don't have a chance. [/QUOTE]
