How does the 22 Nosler cartridge perform compared to 5.56 NATO?

The 22 Nosler cartridge offers significantly more case capacity than 5.56 NATO, allowing for higher powder charges and greater velocity. This results in improved ballistic performance, making it suitable for varmint hunting and longer-range engagements.

What kind of accuracy can be expected from the CMMG Mk4 V2 22 Nosler?

In testing, the CMMG Mk4 V2 achieved a 1-inch group with 77gr Nosler ammunition at 100 yards. Further testing at 459 yards with the 77gr load yielded a 3.5-inch group, indicating sub-MOA potential under ideal conditions.

Are there any special magazine requirements for the 22 Nosler caliber?

Yes, due to the fatter case of the 22 Nosler, standard 5.56/.223 magazines are not compatible. 6.8 SPC magazines are recommended, and 6.5 Grendel magazines were also found to feed reliably during testing.
