    Stick with 222, easy as. Should shoot 55's, may very well shoot 60/63's. If you want some to try, let me know, Im pretty sure I have a few here you can have to try.

    .223...... hawk spitsh (as in clearing throat) ......we need a emoji to cover that! If as much time and effort had been put into the .222 as has the Nato round we would all still be using it.

    That twist will handle 55 gr bullets no problem. If you do rechamber it restamp the calibre designation just in case you pass it forward later.
