   Avoid over thinking, if possible, find yourself a local reloading guru/sensei. Grey hair and hearing loss are usually good signs that they have been shooting for a while :P Read this first...

   There is no one answer. Figure on roughly 10% steps of the nominal load. So yes, catridge capacity dependant. 0.5 gr for say 308 sized, for a 22 Hornet 0.2 gr dropping to 0.1 gr when approaching...

   .2 in the trebly and .5 in the 08 while working up to find pressure. Half grain steps in a small case can go from mild to wild .

   I dont bother with less than half grain change in larger case...or quarter grain in little one.....unless you chasing the last little bit of accuracy or velocity its not worth it in my book.

   Yes the Vixen is probably one of the best 222 around, I bought one while culling goats in the 70's and now wished I still had it. So true those 7 shot magazines were great.

    Probably the best 222 ever made, along with the early BSA's and BRNO's. Vixens in good nick are getting harder to come by now, so look after yours mate, it'll see ya out.

    Love the H.E camo fleece but in damp steep bush you cant beat a traditional swanny with a knife belt around your guts and your tucker dropped down the front
