    Concerning 22lr vs 22 magnum. The 22lr is .222 or .223 bore and the 22 magnum is .224. Not sure it would be a good idea to re-bore a 22lr to 22 magnum.

    Try shooting a 3/4oz load from my 3lb 7 oz 410 and you will realize the weight of the gun has a lot to do with recoil.

    In my opinion, the cartridge would have a rim, be somewhere from 25 to 30 caliber, not have overly thin case walls and have a decent neck length. My choice would definitely be the 256 Winchester. ...

    I have read about a 223/25 that was easy to load for and very versatile. Necking up the 223 gives you a longer neck for cast boolits.
