Catfish,
I coined a saying a long time ago:
"You can spend a lot of money on a custom rifle and still not have it shoot near as well as a 10 inch TC."

The old contender is just an amazing gun. The only thing I have seen that will beat the 222 in the 14 inch gun is the 223. The 223 sings in the 14 inch TC. I built a custom XP-100 in 6.5BR, spent over 1k on the gun, just in parts, went to a Region championship match and came in second, to a darn TC 14 inch, 223 gun in the shoot offs.

If I want to find out how well any .224 shoots I go get a box of Berger bullets. The 222 and 223 both love the Bergers.
