Talk:.222 Rimmed

Talk subject about dimensions on the article itself.

It seems in October 2020, someone edited the page with a question about the cartridge dimensions. This should have been on the talk page, not the article. I've removed it, but will leave the question here. If someone knows about the dimensions themselves, they can actually address the question.

"Sorry would you please correct the measurements shown in this? - the case length as actually measured by me, is 1.69 to 1.70, not 1.85. Point of logic: 1.85 would make it longer than the .223!! All dimensions on the 222 rimmed are identical to the 222, I have measured it all, except that the rimmed brass has a noticeable rim, and no indentation at the base. I resize my 222 rimmed brass using a 222 die set and a 357 magnum die holder. It first the martini cadet perfectly, and the 357 shell holder holds the case in the same place as a 222 shellholder would hold a rimless 222 case. In summary, the data for this cartridge should be made to match the 222 remington except that there is a rim and no indent near the base (extraction groove). This article actually confused me before I had seen 222 rimmed bullets in real life. It made me think they were not so similar, but they really are. I would like it updated so that others are not confused as I was, and will know to go ahead and buy a 222 die set and number 1 (357 mag) shellholder." 109.76.184.180 (talk) 20:28, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
