And that’s the best way Charlie, and you know what else?
That wont ever change because of a new bullet or powder coming along, or using a longer barrel either.
They are all good to a point, after which you need bigger, having equal or better velocity.
Right now the 6mm is the popular choice for 1000 yd benchrest, except of coarse when it’s windy.
Then those having 30s along also will be using them, fact is some of the best shooters always use them.
Conditions always rule, period, the most we can do is adjust to them as best we can with our equipment choices, of coarse individuall ability does play a roll also.
The good test would be to take a 223, a 22/250 AI, and a good 6mm on a prairie dog hunt where shots will be from say from 100 out to 800 yds or more.
Take the same amount of ammo for each, and count the number of each you bring back.
Remember that after about 15 minit’s of shooting, you wont be seeing many close ones.
