Greetings,
There were oodles of .22 calibre cartridges about at one stage. In 1950 the .222 Remington cut them down like ripe wheat. A decade or so later the .22-250 Rem finished the job. These days these two are fading, replaced by the .223 Rem with a fast twist and now likely the .22 Creedmoor. Something new will follow.
Cyril Waterworth listed loads for the .22-303 Wasp cartridge giving around 3,400 fps with the 55 grain projectile, a little less than the .22-250. Not much changes.
GPM.
