I just got into reloading the other year, first with a 22 hornet, then my 222 rem, then a friends 204 ruger, now a new 243 win that I just bought earlier this year.
I have many, many bullets to try for the 222 as this has been my favorite ground-hog gun for 25+ years. It's a 700 BDL, wearing a Nikon Monarch UCC 5.5-16.5x44mm scope and a Harris bipod. I just shot #41 & 42 this past weekend with it. Want to try BL-C(2) and H335 both, but right now I am in love with a max load of IMR-4198 and Speer's 50gr TNT hollow points. So I would encourage anyone to try these. Work up though as 20.0 of 4198 with a Rem 7 1/2 primer is definitely max load for this bullet. Accurate as heck though, and a gut shot will leave you thinking you were carrying a heavier caliber!
