History of the .222 Remington cartridge:
The .222 Remington, aka Triple Deuce was introduced in 1950 by Remington Arms Company (as a completely new designed cartridge) to compete against the .219 Zipper by Winchester in a market between the .22 Hornet and .22 Swift (before the 223 Remington or 22.250 Remington).
It was first chambered in the Remington Model 722 Bolt-Action rifle.
Many other cartridges have been designed using the .222 Remington case, sure as .221 Remington Fireball,.17 Remington Fireball, .17 Remington and more recently the .204 Ruger.
