Klikitarik Campfire Ranger Joined: Aug 2003 Posts: 17,491 Alaska - N63º, W162º	In a 222 (M70, 1-14") I once had the 63 Sierra SMP shot very well (good enough for gopher shooting). It also shot the 64 Powerpoint well enough to easily place lethal shots in deer-sized game to 150 yards or so. The 60 Hornady SP however would not shoot in that rifle. (I reckon shooting on the coast of the Bering Sea qualifies as "sea level" for the intent of atmospheric awareness. ) Last edited by Klikitarik; 09/03/15. Sometimes, the air you 'let in'matters less than the air you 'let out'.
