With that being said - yes, there are some cartridges that are more user friendly to load, some that are easier to shoot, and some that seem to perform above their pay-grade but the term "inherently accurate" is bandied about like it is some cure-all cartridge when in actuality outside some very specific competitions most any cartridge that you like and shoot well will do the job.

Have to disagree with you on this one..........you give me two close to identical rifles one in 223 the other in 222, and I guarantee I can make the 222 shoot better every time...........might not mean anything to you but to some (like me) it does.
