with most bullets. Seems today guys want faster twist tubes for heavy for caliber slugs. But a slower twist more conventional tube using .22 cal. 30 gr. projectiles and modern slow powders who knows how fast the AI could manage?! I htink the .220 did it's best with 50 gr.?

The .204 is very interesting and efficient for it's size and report. I like it a lot. It would actually be my pick of the bunch. The others have the blast of a 7mm Mag.! You'd get weary quick in dog town I'd bet.

Will a 22-250 AI stay with a 220 Swift or a 204 Ruger? (nm) - Andy S, 2018-04-27, 20:43
