Head to Head: .22-250 Remington vs. .220 Swift

These two cartridges are the most popular of the truly fast .22 centerfires, but which one comes out on top? Contributor Philip Massaro compares the two and picks the winner.

Why My Cartridge is Better Than Yours

Contributor Philip Massaro explains why his cartridge of choice is—and always will be—vastly superior to yours.

Behind the Bullet: .223 Remington

Undoubtedly one of our nation’s favorite cartridges, the .223 Remington is capable of hair-splitting accuracy in a properly built rifle, has enough velocity for a respectable trajectory, and with the heavier bullets with a higher BC, can resist wind deflection rather well.

Behind the Bullet: .17 Hornet

The .17 Hornet, son of the classic .22 Hornet, is a well-balanced design. Sharing the rimmed design of the parent case, it feeds nicely in a bolt-action repeating rifle, provides pinpoint accuracy and minimal recoil, and checks all the boxes for varmint hunting.
