Deciding on a 22 and is the ARC really that great?

If I was going to exclusively reload, I would definitely choose the 22 arc. If I wanted to get a ton of practice in with factory ammo and possibly reload for hunting, it would definitely be the .223.

A suppressed .223 lever action would be very cool! I could see myself buying one for the John Wayne Red Ryder toting 10 year old that still lives inside me…

A tad unconventional, but there's this.
