About LinkBackssee with the HMR 120 is my max, any past that and then I bring out the AR, super cheap ammo available anywhere in the country in bulk,effective, universally accepted as one of the most versatile rounds in history, a reloaders dream,reasonably high BC's and in a variety of bullet constructions/types. that is also part of my question bearing those factors in mind why not go for a .223?or a 204?or a .22-250?or a 243 with a fast twist optimised for the lighter weight varminting bullets?

I wonder what they will be like to reload. With the new shoulder they shouldnt be to bad. I am still set on a K hornet but impressed with the couple of .17's I have played with, apart from their performance in any wind.
