[QUOTE="HarryN, post: 1102610, member: 69773"] The .22 TCM is a neat, low recoil cartridge, but does it meet the goal of being low cost to shoot, a .22LR copper replacement vs a normal .223? - Lighter weight ammo - yes - fun - yes, well ok, I like shooting most anything - $ 0.25 per round target with lead free bullets? - from here it looks no cheaper than a normal .223. The big savings is going down to the .204 caliber. I am just having fun with you Fred, go ahead and build what you like. :) In case you get curious about the .223 short, do a search on ".223 short project". It is in the go2gbo.com forum. The brass actually necks really close to .204 caliber due to the thicker brass as it is reformed. [/QUOTE]
