    Hey, if you can't get one for 222R, you could possibly use a 223 loader.
    223 case is 1.750" long.
    222R case is 1.70" long.
    Both use 0.224" bullets

    Just machine about 0.50 off the base of the neck sizing die and use a smaller scoop. Bobs your uncle.

    Neck thickness??

    Hunt safe, look after the bush & plug more pests. The greatest invention in the history of man is beer.

    A bit more bang is better.
