[QUOTE="Pistol packer, post: 626847, member: 34702"] upon his experience with the swift, he stated that if he were to limited to only one cartridge/rife for all of his hunting in any part of the world..he would choose the 220 swift. with solid constructed bullets (such as the barnes X-not produced then) he wouldnt feel undergunned in any situation. that is pretty much a quote from the greatest wildcatter in history. i know from experience that a 224 55 gr SP at 4000 FPS will go thru 1/2 inch of armour plate. ackley showed this in photos of a WWII halftrack armour plate hit by a 270,a -06 bullet and a 22, 55 grainer from a swift. the swift was the only one that went thru. imagine if it had been a steel penetrator or copper solid.
