Re: .22 Savage Hi-Power or .225 Winchester

IMHO the Savage has all the class, but it's a 2-edged sword. Cases can be hard to get, even RWS metric head-stamped cases are not always in stock, and if you form them from something else you may end up with neck-splits if you're not ruthless about annealing. The projectiles may be a headache to source in Oz as well: although I believe Hornady include them in their line-up, they may not be routinely imported. Norma projies are probably better if you can get them.

For me, the choice would be easy (I like class! ) but I couldn't recommend the Savage over the Winchester to others.
