My ONLY push for the 22CM is in HOPES that a factory says "LETS DO THAT and GIVE IT a 1-8" TWIST"
Which apparently scares the living shiet out of everyone cranking out a 22/250

I'm kicking around the idea of necking a .308 down to 6mm.
What do you guys think?
Dave 6mm-.257 could be easier

And that would make sense from a marketing standpoint. But since Winchester opted for the 10" twist on the WSSM... Clark

Couldn't you just use a Redding S die for a 6.5 with the correct bushing? Even still, for some reason 6.5 dies aren't cheap either...

Couldn't you also just, Ackley the 22-250?
Or run a Swift in a long action?

Buying bags of brass,seating a bullet and making a rifle go BANG is more easier.

The Swift shot in a 1-8 twist barrel is one sweet cartridge....
And it works very well with the longer bullets in a push feed M70 short action.
But a 1-8 22 Creed would be sweet as well!!

Seems to me twist is the key; headstamp, less critical...  DF

Dave Yeah butttt.... It doesn't appeal to the vanity like a wildcat cartridge. The .22 Creedmoor, being a wildcat might possibly shoot faster/flatter/more better than your factory cartridge..... Kinda like a .223AI......

There are at least five in this part of the world.
The guys who own them increase the powder charges until a primer blows and then back off .5 to 1.0 grains.
They are getting really high velocities.
At least, with the 22-250 AI, you could use Lapua cases and there is laboratory pressure tested data.
I doubt there is much to be gained with the CM based case. Actually, with Lapua cases I would wager the AI will outperform the 22CM.
Whatever makes you happy...it is a vanity...not performance. Guys who load until they blow primers and then cut back seem a little cavalier to me. But, I'm a rather cautious reloader.

I'm not a cautious reloader. At all.
And this project makes about as much sense as sticking your dick in a garbage disposal.
