[QUOTE="DR Ray, post: 2412249, member: 120150"] Years ago the 222 Remington was the "thing" in Australia anyway. I think many of these "new" calibers etc are fads. I target shooting tomorrow using my 300 Winchester magnum and checking out where my Woodleigh 400 grain hydros are printing. U might add I'm using a borrowed lead sled for the 416. I used a 222 and 243 for competition shooting many years ago. I must admit that the 243 took a mighty lot of fine tuning with multiple powders, bullets, and primers. Finnicky critter! These days I don't have a 222 or 243 - the former given to my son and the latter to a step son. I looked at the 6.5 Creedmoor but decided that I'll use my Kimber M84 in 308 topped with a Nighforce scope for target shooting (I shoot mainly at 400 m not yards). Personally I think it's the shooter who needs the "fine tuning" rather than the cartridge etc. [/QUOTE]
