Smallest & largest: A Bee in a #1B. Haven't shot it a lot, but it seems like it will do well. I have a 12x Loopey for it, and I should really take some better pictures of it. ![[Linked Image]](http://i712.photobucket.com/albums/ww127/tex_n_cal/218bee_zps45f4d8e7.jpg) And at the other end, a .475 Turnbull: ![[Linked Image]](http://i712.photobucket.com/albums/ww127/tex_n_cal/475target8-9-14_zps8a1bcb3a.jpg)

Heretic!
Will say this nonetheless. Those boys posting all the pics have #1 wood.

I love the 1A and 1S configurations the most. To my eye, they are the classiest production rifle extant.
Nice to see no bubba buddies on any of them.
Kudos.

As you can see I do too. However the 1AH in 25.06 handles very well, and the 1B in 6mm, I have has had a 1/2 in length taken from the butt and 2 in from the barrel.
Really feels quite a bit livelier then an unaltered 1B.

Haven't shot it yet............. No excuse just haven't had it out. Been using a CZ 527 fullstock in 22 Hornet most of the summer as well as the 1S in 218 Bee. The hornet with a 36gr Barnes , 13gr Lilgun, 6x weaver ![[Linked Image]](http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad59/TimLanigan/Phone%20Pics%20265.jpg) Disregard the 2 shots on the left and right they were from another rifle. Bottom shot was the first shot before adjusting the elevation. ![[Linked Image]](http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad59/TimLanigan/Phone%20Pics%20264.jpg) What loads are you using in your .222 ?

Honest to God I tried 5 different loads...all with 55 and 60 grain bullets....and it liked them ALL. I settled on 19.5 grains of IMR 4198 behind a 55 grain Hornady SP...cause I have a zillion of them.... Just ordered some 50 Barnes TTSX.............  Gonna try sizzling them out and shoot a deer or some pigs...if not the55 gr. Horn will kill the pigs. See post on previous age....

Have lot's of Hornady 55gr sp , but not much IMR 4198.
Can't use .224 diameter on Big Game in Alberta. Have a 6x45 for that.
Have seen a 22 Hornet used in Manitoba , resulting in Deer to feild dress.

Dat one looks kinda familiar....  But mine dont have a bear. One of those bear aren't in the cards in the near future, but we will try for a black one this fall with it, so we will see. Wait, you weren't stunt shooting with that 222 I saw posted?
