I think it's a dumb idea myself. Why are we trying to do so much with a .22 caliber bullet? next thing we will be trying to shoot 105 grain 22s with a 5 twist barrel. Where does the madness end?
If you want to shoot at very long ranges, don't try to do it with a mouse gun. Simple as that.
Because it works? Already doing 95 grainers with a 6” twist. A 80-100 grain bullet designed correctly will kill every herbivore in NA. Doing so in a .224 gives you great BC and BETTER terminal ballistics than doing it with a bigger caliber and same size bullet.
8-10 ft-lbs of recoil is about the cutoff for stupid easy shooting. You get the most for the least with heavy, high BC well designed bullets in .22 cal.
