I just don't see the .223 as the best platform for the heavy 77 to 90 grain .223 bullets with high SD's out there, because it is velocity challenged.

I would be interested in the 22-6mm or 5.56X57 because the gun I want to use is a 7X57 now.

The heavy .224" bullets turn all this "6mm is better" talk on it's head.

The 90gr Berger Match Target VLD has a BC of .551 which is HIGHER than any of Berger's 6mm bullets.

I like your idea of the .22-06 and if there were varmints where I lived I'd build one.
