Hi fellas,
I just can’t decide between those two cartridges.....I’m not interested in a fast twist .223 because I have other stuff for long range shooting. So I’m thinking a .222 or a .223 (12” twist) for Fox shooting out to 250m and lots of paper punching ! I always hear about the accuracy potentials of .222 but in identical rifles let’s say a Sako 85 Varmint....will I notice a difference between the .222 and .223 ? I had a nice Sako 75 Varmint some years ago and I sold it which was the dumbest thing I have ever done....that rifle was my most accurate rifle !!! So now I’m hoping to correct this mistake and buy a new Varmint rifle...
