![]() |
| Warning! Notes: Standard twist: 14", 16". There are numerous versions of the "improved" .222 Remington cartridge all of which are about the same. The idea of the "improved" .222 Remington is namely to increase the capacity of the case to give a corresponding increase in velocity. Accuracy is probably unchanged. The following loading data is for the Kilbourn or "K" version. (Handbook for Shooters & Reloaders/Vol. 1 - P.O. Ackley, 1962) NOTE: USE THIS DATA WITH EXTREME CAUTION |
