    The .22 zero is a nice mild .22 cal based on the .222 rem .As you can see Iv pushed the shoulder forward by .000, improved the case by reducing the taper by .000 at the shoulder and necked it to take the .224 projectiles. The before along with the after loaded with a 55gr gameking with an unknown bc which will be sent at an unknown velocity.

    Very nice. That's some fancy ass wildcat you got there mate. I'd like a BSA Hunter one day. They're nice rifles.
    If you don't get Dirt, Blood or Grease under your nails it ain't a hobby

    Some credit has to go to Abe for the design, we had been kicking it around for a good 10-15 seconds.

    That is just plain sexy VC
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
