This is a bit off topic but people might find this useful.
Here are the ballistics for a Sierra 220 gr MK at 1080 fps compared to a Sierra 40 gr hornet varminter bullet at 1230 fps. I know that the 40 gr varminter bullet has a better B.C. but it still demonstrates the ballistic similarities between sub-sonic 300-221 fireball loads and the 22LR. Out to about 200 yrds., the ballistics are close enough. If you are looking for a scope to use with sub-sonic loads the Pride Fowler might be considered.
