Kinda like the looks of the 222 Haney. Looks like a mini gibbs. In regards to the 75 amaxs, will they seat in a stock remington mag well, seated to the neck shoulder junction or will they need to be seated short ?
The short neck of the Ackley or the 22-204 is not a detriment in powder capacity or attainable velocity when using suitable powder for either utilizing the heavier bullets.
The 222 Rem Mag in factory form still sucks hind tit to either.........
short necks produce short barrel life. This is a given factor. But a .223AI using the .222mag case with the longer neck will give you everything.

What is the 224 BG ? Any pics or info?
You don't hear anyone complaining about the lack of barrel life of their 223 or a 204.
Pressures play as big, if not bigger, role in life expectancy as neck length.
Everyone seem to be missing the concept of the 22-204.
It gives 223 Ackley performance without the need to fireform brass.
a 22/.204 case has to be fire formed. Short & fat is much better
