Lovely cartridge..lots of decent rifles...CZ 527... older BSA CF...I have a Sako 75 with varmint barrel....shot very well at 300 yds Bisley..

Pays your money and makes your choice. I am not aware of a bad rifle choice with the .222. Most have a 1 in 14 twist, limiting you to 50/55gn bullet...may be some more recent models with a 1 in 12 twist?
