Thank you DANTHEHUNTER. If you read this string, there is only one thing to say....all the posters who bad mouth the 220 Swift have never owned one, never fired one and never run one through a Chrony. I have fired thousands of bullets through my HVA, Shilen barrel Mauser without the slightest "erosion" problem at 4000+ feet per second It is the finestvarmit rifle I have ever owned and at 60 years, I've owned a bunch including 2 250's. See Pic attached.......now there is the ultimate varmit rifle IMHO!
I'm not badmouthing. I am all for going with a .220 if someone can prove to me that there is enough performance difference in the factory offerings to justify getting it in place of a .22-250.
So far all I'm hearing is opinions and nothing in the way of facts. I don't consider handload data relevant because I'm not handloading.
