Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
On 6 March 2013, Mike H. Walker passed away at 101 years old. A renowned engineer at Remington Arms for 37 years, Mike is credited for several designs of Remington bolt-action rifles, including the Rem m700, Rem m721, and Rem m722. Additionally, he held numerous patents for trigger designs, and he was a leading proponent of bench rest shooting.
Walker was a 20th-century legend in the shooting industry and a well-respected cartridge and gun designer. He was also Director of Research and head of Remington Custom Shop in New York, and he created the Remington 40-X series of rifles in the 1960s to compete with all target rifles on the market at the time, as well as the legendary Winchester M70/Target-Match. Over time, the 40-X models evolved into providing long-range Varmint and bench rest shooting and military sniping. The Remington 40X Bolt Action Rifle is an example of why Remington continues to gain the loyalty and respect of hunters, shooters, and law enforcement/military alike.
The .22-250 Remington is a short-action and high-velocity rifle cartridge that is primarily used for varmint hunting and small game hunting. This cartridge can reach over 4,000 feet per second and is known for its low recoil, which makes it a popular choice for women and young children for deer hunting in some jurisdictions. In some areas, using cartridges smaller than 6 mm, like the .243 Winchester, for deer hunting is prohibited. The .22-250 is also referred to as the .22 Varminter or the .22 Wotkyns Original Swift. This cartridge, along with the .220 Swift, gained popularity in the late 1930s and early 1940s due to its high-velocity and reputation for remote wounding effects known as hydrostatic shock.
