Best Uses
This is a paper and steel load. Use it to check zero, test a new scope or shoot groups on a calm day. Full metal jacket bullets do not expand, so this is not a hunting round. For varmints, pick a soft point or polymer tip. Many reloaders buy a few boxes of Lapua 222 FMJ just for the cases. Shoot it, then prep the brass for your own loads. A 20-round box is also a low-cost way to see how your rifle groups with 55 grain bullets.
