I haven't seen anybody write anything about the 222 which is good testimony that this is much more underrated than 223. OK, the 223 might have a little edge for military purposes, but it really doesn't have much more to offer except for the option of having a faster twist. I mean.. hey, no manufacturer even seems to offer the 222 option. The hornet is offered, but not the 222???
