Thread: overlap between cartridges

its been said that the .222remington was so popular with meat hunters and cullers here because it was so much lighter and was so much more accurate that the run of the mill other big cartridge rifles of the time..... I never really worked out what the writers who said this meant...I mean surely the factory ammunition and rifles werent that bad..... then just the other day having a look in my older Nosler manual there was page on using the simple reloading tools ...the LEE whackamole in particular... I recal reading it before but never took too much notice of the photos.....
the group size would have Dannyb in tears....... if that was the NORMAL expectation...and Ive read it in many places it was..... no wonder the wee trebly looked so darn attractive... these new skids on the jock dont have it so easy as things have been pretty sharp for last 30 years by comparison...
