[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 772568, member: 25383"] I honestly think that before even considering a 22-243 or the 22/6mm, I would look at something like the Jaybird or a 6x47 Lapua necked down to .223 in a 1:8 twist barrel. The neck's way too short on the .243 case for what you get, and the 57mm case is way overbore creating other issues. Even a 22-250AI is slightly overbore, but with a fast twist barrel should be just fine. The Jaybird is similar to the 22-243, but with a far better neck and shoulder design. Plus there's plenty of load development already done. With a .300" neck length and 80 grain bullets it should be fantastic. gary [/QUOTE]
