[QUOTE="SBruce, post: 491349, member: 21068"] I shot a 220 Swift for many many years. For a long time, it was my only rifle. A little crowded in a Ruger short action. Couldn't get bullets out to the lands and still mag feed. Easily the most accurate factory barrel rifle I've ever owned though. Unbelievable shooter. Only thing I didn't care for was quite a bit of case stretching. If I was going to do a long 6mm now, it would be a 6mm Improved. Short action, 6X47 Lapua (actually doing a variation of that currently) or 243 Improved. There's plenty of room in the short action for the 6X47 Lap. [/QUOTE]
