[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 2966720, member: 109862"] Oh for 💩 sake you’re at it again!!!! 🤣. Stirring up trouble among the brethren! 🤣 Okay I’ll play. In my own experience which is no doubt a lot less than a lot of guys on here, the fussiest cartridge I’ve ever worked with HANDS DOWN is the .220 Swift. I’ve heard similar things from many, it’s not just a case of a picky rifle. The .22-250 is almost as powerful, nowhere near as cool 😎, but much less finicky. The .220 swift is like Henry Ford saying you could have a model T in any colour so long as it was black. It shot great with any load so long as it was a 55 grain flat base on top of a max charge of imr4064. Did amazing with that, absolutely sucked with literally anything else, powder and bullet wise. Least fussy to me has still got to be the boring old .308 Winchester. It’s boring because you just slap together pretty much any load and it likes it…where’s the fun in that???🤣 [/QUOTE]
