JK16,

You gave a good summation of them.

Sample of three here -

#1 chambered in 22 LR at 50 yds one shot 3/4" to 1" five shot groups..
#2 chambered in 22 LR at 50 yards shot 1" to 1 1/2" five shot groups.
this was with various ammo including some mid-grade match ammo, inadequate performance from both of those IMO.

#3 chambered in 17 HMR at 50 yds shoots 5 shot groups with all touching - sub-1/2" consistently, at 100 yards 5 shot groups sub 1" as long as it is calm.

The 22's went down the road - the 17 HMR still lives here.

223 Rem, my favorite cartridge - you can't argue with truckloads of dead PD's and gophers.
