[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1536730, member: 2736"] There are a lot of .224 cartridges out there to chose from. Decide if you want a screamer that will out distance The Swift, or one that will be in the same neighborhood as the swift. or you can chose something that can do the job but with a lot less cost of Ammo and barrel wear. Then there is the wildcats that In most cases don't add performance, just loading issues and require more loading skill and equipment. And then there is the other class of cartridges with tricky names that sound good but are realy no different than many other cartridges in performance unless you go with something like the Eargersplittin Loudenboomero_O (A 378 Weatherby case necked down to 22 cal, designed to reach 5000 ft/sec) it didn't make it and was more of a gimmick than anything.

This will narrow the field and a more rational decision can be made. There are 15 to 20 different standard 22 center fire cartridges and that many or more wild cat 22 cal cartridges (A lot to chose from) Narrow it down to what you expect and then go from there. Good luck J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
