The 22 Cheetah, based on the small primer pocket 308 case from Remington is basically the same thing. My friend Dearl and I each have one, 40* shoulder, our Shilen barrels are twisted at 1-15 or 1-16, can't remember for sure, and they shoot a 45 gr Sierra at 4500-4600 f/s. Accuracy is about 5/8"@ 100. Case life is horrible...at 4600f/s you get to reload it twice, at 4500f/s maybe get 5 reloads before the primer pocket gets loose.....but, when it connects, it really blows things up!....and the time it takes for the bullet to get to whatever the intended target might be, is very noticeably brief! Don't shoot it a lot with that short brass life, mostly shoot our 17 Ackley Hornets....they do so much so well!
