Best summed up with the following
R22 designed as a 1+1 personal heli
S300 desighned to teach people to fly ( the military )

One of the schools where I worked the average 1st solo on R22 was about 20 hours on a 300 about 15 which just about sums it up.
As an instructor the 300 is much more forgiving and much easier to fly.
