Features
To ensure perfect mushrooming, the Oryx has a thin forward Jacket with internal splitting zones and a thicker rear jacket to ensure high residual weight after impact. The Oryx has rapid expansion, excellent penetration and high energy transfer, perfect for the North American Big Game hunter. This is the fastest production cartridge ever made, dating back to 1935 when Winchester introduced it in their model 54 bolt action rifle. Originally the inspiration for this design came from Grosevenor Wotkyns who was experimenting with necking down the .250-3000 Savage case. However, Winchester chose to base their new design on the case of a 6 mm Lee Navy, a semi-rimmed cartridge from before the turn of the century and already then heading for obsolescence. It was necked-down to .22 caliber and loaded with a 48 grain bullet with a muzzle velocity of no less than 4110 fps. The .220 Swift uses .224.
