25 Souper for shorter barrels and 25-284 for longer barrels.

The 25 Souper will do everything that a 250AI will do, given equal pressures and the same bullets, but I found that the 25 Souper would feed better in my Ruger 77 RSI.

Despite having a herd of 250-3000 rifles, I like the 25 Souper and 25-284 more. If I was going to build a light 20" stalking rifle on a SA Remington 7/600/660/700, I'd go with the 25 Souper. If I was going to build a heavier 24" longer range, open country, rifle, I'd go with the 25-284 and never look back. If limited to a single bolt action rifle to shoot everything from pdogs to deer, I'd go with the 25-284 and never look back or 2nd guess my choice.
