My goal is for 22 caliber target shooting and Varmint hunting. Already have 6.8 brass, 6.8 bolt, 6.8 mags. May buy a PSA 20 inch 224V upper at one of their big holiday sales - I really only need a barrel as I have everything else to build an upper.
I am thinking like 55 grain to 80 grain. I would not go for the 90s. Would be interesting to see what a 224V would do with 60 Nosler BTs. Again, varmint and target shooting but not necessarily the 90 or greater projectiles.
