22 cal 30gr MEFs (in 222rem)
A while ago I posted that Walt Berger had done some load development following a call about 30gr MEFs in 222rem. People asked if I would post my results.

Thus far 3,925fps with no pressure and amazing accuracy (less than 1/4moa)Current load is 22gr VVN120, RP brass, CCIBR4 seated 2/3 of calibre depth.

I think it will be possible to comfortably exceed 4,000fps.

Terminal effects are spectacular but there is a flip side. BC is .117 so wind drift is extreme, nearly double that of a 40gr Vmax and trajectory is not quite as flat.
