Frank Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 Wabbitbosher, Great photos :thumbs: Do you prefer the .222 over the .223? How long have you been shooting with the .222? What is the set up you have? Whats the grouping like at , 100yds, 200 and 300? Sorry for so many questions, but some time in the future i might be going for a .222. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
