Have a varmint match in November that is limited to .224 projectile size. It will be unknown distances, varmint sized targets, no warmup or sighters.
I have the time and money to build a rifle before then just to run this match but I am undecided about cartridge. There are some rules about upper speed limit not exceeding 3200fps.
We looking at valkyrie at this point? Just stick with .223? 22-250 is probably a touch fast and wrong twist rate for the weight I want to run (75-80gr)
Thinking fast and flat is going to be the key
