My .222 is identical to ScottN's but with a bit more scope (4.5-14 Leupold). Best groups run in the 0.2 to 0.3 inch range. It'll shoot 0.5 inch with almost any handload and most factory stuff. Like ScottN's, beyond 250 it needs to be pretty windless. On quiet days however, 300 yard crows are in big trouble. Wish I had gophers. 200 yard coyotes are a cinch with the right bullets. Wonderful gun to shoot. I prefer it to my 22-250. If you're interested in one, there's a Sako Vixen on Gunnutz right now.
