Default RE: .22-250 vs. .220 Swift

As Rosko said and I also said in another post, the 22-250 AI is superior in every respect than either its parent case or the 220 Swift. It is the one that has no peers.

ASlso, in checking all of my manuals, you can expect only about 100 fps difference between the swift and the 22-250. Both are very good varmit rounds but the cost in brass, powder and barrel ife favors the 22-250. The 22-250 will operate at close enough to the same speed ao about 8-10 grains less powder.
