Inside of 850ish yards, the "cost benefit analysis" when factoring in shootability, wind performance, and first round hit rates in hunting terrain/shooting positions... In the shooting I've done so far with 22CM and 80 ELDX, 80 ELDM, and 88 ELDM it's the clear winner.

There's a reason I'm building a 3rd 22CM as we speak.

I don't find much perceived difference than my 6cm with 109s at 2950 and 22cm with 88s at 3040fps. This is from the same exact rifle setup, with 18" light palma blanks, running DD wolf hunter can.

My identically setup 6CM and 22CM are close yes, with the 6CM still producing around 1.75-2 ft lbs or so more free recoil energy usingf 108's versus 22CM with 88s.

could even create my own version of WEZ at that poi


Do it and your cool !

You have kind of posed this data with the goal of seeking to find the most efficient way to get a certain number. I would kind of like thinking about it instead in the terms of how much recoil can you accept such that you can still spot impacts and then therefore go get the most wind number you can for that recoil.
