[QUOTE="436, post: 599900, member: 16609"] Actually going too a 6mm-220 Swift which is a real nice cartridge might be fun if your going to hunt deer as well with it. Or just go old school with your .220 Swift. Nosler has a load I’ve used for years in my Swifts. It's from their number three manual, page 131 before all the attorneys got involved. Here's the load, with my components. 55gr Ballistic Tip RL-15 {39.0grs} Federal 210 Winchester case 26" Rem 700 1-12 twist. {they used a 1-14 twist Lilja} 4050 fps I ran this load across my Model 35P skyscreen III proof chronograph and it was pretty much right on, with no signs of pressure. I’ve tip over quite a few rats and dogs with the load; it is “extremely” accurate and not as hard on the barrel as people might say’ keep the bore clean. 436 [/QUOTE]
