  • The .222 Remington was introduced in the Remington Arms Model 726 bolt action rifle. Factory rifles often produce groups of one minute of arc (0.3 mrad) or less with no tuning. The accuracy and flat trajectory of the cartridge resulted in the adoption of the round for varmint and benchrest rifles. While the faster .220 Swift and .22-250 provided more reach, the .222 Remington had more power (roughly 50 percent more), muzzle blast, and barrel erosion.
