I often think I should get one but already have the 22-250 and some say you can't practically beat the performance of the -250 with the Swift. But when placed side by side the Swift does tower over the shorter 22-250 much like the -250 does over the 223. It seems like there should be a several hundred fps difference in velocity but that doesn't seem to be the case at least with 55's? The big slouch, now re read, then re re read......Hint Ping pong balls for the win. Once you've wrestled everything else in life is easy. Dan Gable I keep my circle small, I’d rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies. Ain’t easy havin pals.

Where's the 50's you pontificate. Congratulations?!? Pass the Kreedmire and hold the fluff,by aligning RPM,COAL and Throat Geometry for THE win. At least you "get" to read about it. Bless your heart.

But, about the swift, if you want one buy one you will not regret it, everyone will be in awe ...... if you build, do a fast twist, no downside with light bullets and the heavies will go far... Very little recoil, max performance, it is a legend. Brass is it's weakness, quality of available brass is ok, stock up ..... Enjoy ........

Indeed 6mm I see he responded a couple of times to my post...... I imagine I have reawakened his perverse infatuation? Did he post that pic of himself with no pants again?
