[QUOTE="jwp3, post: 1864338, member: 74497"] I had great success shooting a quarter size target at 400 yards using a 220 swift. Not 5000 fps but moves a 50 grain sierra soft point at 4330. It took out a 175 lb Russian bore running at 150 and a big Axis at 200. Closest thing to lightning that I ever had in my hands! I'm not sure about barrel life. It's a 1970's ruger M77 with a target barrel. I shot it a good bit but I mainly use an ar15 or 10 now for varmints. I also love a 6mm Rem which use to be one of my main guns. Besides the ar's I use 300 weatherby mag for mule deer. The swift was still shooting very accurate before I put it in the safe. Maybe I should dust it off. [/QUOTE]
