Will these work in an early model Remington XP-100? I know it takes .221. Just not sure about the grain and the plastic tipped bullet type.
Answer:
If your XP-100 is chambered in .221 Fireball, this ammo will work just fine.
Does this replace the 222 ammo??
Answer:
No it does not. .222 Remington and .221 Remington Fireball are completely different cartridges and are not interchangeable or cross compatible. If your rifle is chambered in .222 Remington, then you can only use .222 Remington. There is no cross compatibility with any other cartridge for .222 Remington.
