Hi.
I'll be getting a rifle built in the very near future, chambered in 22 Creedmoor.
It will be mainly a fox rifle and distances will be anything up to 600 yards, from a 24 inch barrel, 1:8 twist barrel.
Would also be used to head/neck shoot smaller deer species, until the lead ban comes into force, and then it will become just a Fox and vermin rifle. I'll then use monolithic bullets in the 7mm-08 for deer and wildboar at that stage.
I also always "try" to achieve close to "target shooting" accuracy as I can with my handloads, in any hunting rifle. Half MOA is my preffered MAXIMUM group sizes. I don't like to see paper between bullet holes when zeroing at 100 yards if I can help it! Accuracy and terminal performance are always at the top of my list. I'm not chasing warp speeds. I would rather sacrifice speed in order to achieve maximum and consistent accuracy.
What would be people's bullet choice for my requirements?
UK based.
Many thanks
