mranch.222 rem mag imp?
I just got another Super 14 .223 barrel. It's a one in twelve twist and I can accually get the bullet out to the rifling!!
![[Eek!]](images/icons/shocked.gif)
I'm going to shoot it and see if shoots any better then my other .223. After testing the 2 barrels to see which is the better of the two, I was thinking about sending the other one in and getting it rechambered to a .222 rem mag imp. What kind of vel. can a person expect to get out of a 14" .222 rem mag imp? Does anyone have any loading Data? Thanks!!

mranchRich, I read about this cal. on Mike web site, I was wondering if anyone had experience in the 14" barrel. Mike hasn't Shot his 14" over a chronograph yet.

<trcuda>Bob,
I have a rechambered 14" 223 in 222 MAI. It was getting around 3350 fps out of 50 gr. bullets.
