[QUOTE="johngibbs222, post: 2084041, member: 49619"] I used to have a 222 back in he 60s have a ruger #3 in 223 now, I backed off the loads a wee bit and it has similar ballistics to the 222. Try using 55 grn fmj bt for paper punching, the 1:14 twist should just about stabilise it, if you have the faster twist try Barnes 50 grain varmint grenades which work quite well out to 250 yards in my rifle which has a 1:10 twist rate.
