My 14 twist Hart/722 .22-204 and my PacNor/700 .204 are of similar weight. The .22-204 likes maxed out 40 gr. bullets (half MOA). Right now, I'm shooting Hornady factory ammo in the .204 (half MOA). That ammo shoots so well, I've not yet reloaded for it although I'm set up to do so.
Shooting the two gives nearly identical sensation. Almost no recoil and near instant bullet strike. With either one, I can watch the bullet impact the target or critter, even with 10X scope.
If I didn't know which one I was shooting, I'd be unable to tell them apart by range/field performance or recoil.
