I've been shooting Maryland groundhogs with one for the last couple of years. I love it, groundhogs not so much. Mine is a no-turn neck so as to keep it as easy as possible. You have a PM.

I've got a NIB CZ 527 American that will wear a PacNor barrel in that caliber some day.

I love mine. I don't shoot any of my other small caliber stuff since I got it. Other then the hornet. The hornet is just so quiet. The 20-222 is easy to load for and accurate. Low recoil. You will love it.

I'm guessing you're referring to brass availability?

Default 20/222

I built 2, one on a Sako L46 donor for a carry gun and the other on a Rem 700 for bench work. Seemed a natural for the Sako and it feeds as slick as the factory 222, the Rem got a #6 Rockcreek from the Saubier group buy.
You can throw a 150fps blanket over all those 20cal variants off the 222/223 parent case, it's just preference and whether you need it to feed from a mag. My 20Bobcat is basically a 20/222AI, little faster but won't feed for squat.
