Awesome choice John.

Might suggest putting a photo up of the cartridge
agaisnt some other well known one's for comparison.




OK, will pinch some from Norma (for now).


.222 Remington
55 gr projectile at a muzzle velocity of 3000 fps


.223 Remington
55 gr projectile at a muzzle velocity of 3100 fps


.22-250 Remington
55 gr projectile at a muzzle velocity of 3600 fps


.220 Swift
55 gr projectile at a muzzle velocity of 3800 fps


5.6x52R / .22 Savage Hi-Power
71 gr projectile at a muzzle velocity of 2800 fps


6x70 mm Rimmed
90 gr projectile at a muzzle velocity of 2400 fps



.243 Winchester
100 gr projectile at a muzzle velocity of 2900 fps

While a slower velocity than many of the rounds shown above, it is very similar to the 5.6x52R and if a light 6mm bullet was used, eg 70 gr would probably have a similar velocity IMO. However the 90 gr bullet would be more effective on the lighter medium game animals.
