Just watched a vid and the shooter said it was a 22 Tejas. Did a search online and here but found nothing. Anyone know anything about this round?

The 300 Tejas is an improved 300RUM with a 50° shoulder. Perhaps someone necked it down to .224? Was the rifle a short or long action?
Couldn't tell and he didn't mention.

That sounds more practical. It wouldn't be too much different than a 22-6mm Rem. Ack. Imp.
Very good investigative skills, I couldn't find anything. Did they state anything about performance?
No. just a comment of what the cartridge is. Surprisingly little information on cartridge. Just plug 22-257 Roberts in a search engine to see if you find anything.
And they said it had a 50 degree shoulder? That would be radical.

I love the 224tth. Its got the regular 6mm rem shoulder if i remember right. Its a real bad boy

It is a bad boy, launches 80 gr. bullets at 3,500 fps. It was designed by Ralph Lermayer a long-time freelance writer and Editor for Predator Xtreme magazine. It is throated for long bullets and this is what differentiates it from the standard 22/6mm. You are correct; they both share a 26° shoulder angle.
