[QUOTE="BUG_MT, post: 3009150, member: 103793"] So kinda on that same logic path myself… I stockpiled Varget because my two primary systems love it. .308 with 175SMKs .223 with 69SMKs I zig zag’ed around the different rabbit holes, I do have a 260AI and 243… so I have touched the 6.5mm and 6mm slightly. But trying to optimize components into the next build I was leaning heavy to the 6GT side, thinking about 243 or 243-30, a couple other 6mm ideas….. and had a conversation that sparked an old attitude, try and have more things that use the same components. And going from a 44gr charge on a 308 to 30gr throw in the GT is almost like buy two get one free. So I’ve kinda looked back at the 22 calibers and 30 calibers… I’ve always been a 30caliber guy. Have a pile of them that push projectiles from 110gr to 210gr. Might as well embrace the 22 end and grow that collection too. Building out a fast barreled 223 bolt gun and something else to kinda hit the top end of what’s being offered. Have projectiles from 32grs to 77gr now, but there’s some awesome stuff coming out in the 80/90 realm. Would be a fun adventure. So as much as im kinda leaning 22GT, I’ve been pushed by the gunsmith to consider 22ARC as well. [/QUOTE]
