[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 772150, member: 313"] The only way to see a large bore .224 (22-243, etc) shine is to use a fast twist barrel. My 8" twist 22-243 would shoot exceptional groups with heavy A-Max bullets. Other guys have had good luck with the 80 SMK bullet. I used the 22-243 to achieve DRT kills on fat PA groundhogs out to about 1,000 yds. Longer shots were probably possible but my hunting area just didn't provide many really long range shooting possibilities. Homes have popped up everywhere over the last 20 years. [/QUOTE]
