I just had Lee make me a 221FB collet die. Was thinking about them for a 22 Creedmoor next, but I'll see how the die set I finally found does first I guess.

Interesting... but I think here in MD you need a $200 tax stamp to go suppressed. Plus whatever the additional weight would be, which I am trying to cut down on as much as possible. The 222 was...

I get what you are saying. To me the 204 is louder than a 22-250... it's a higher pitched crack, versus a lower pitched boom.

I found a kind gentleman willing to sell me a 221FB. Already brought...
