Hard to beat the short-action versions of any of the bolt rifles. One of the nicest .250's I've owned was the short-action version of the push-feed Model 70 (can't remember the exact model name) from the 1980's. A short-action M70 Classic would make a real neat one, but then again so would a short Re, 700 or Ruger 77, or any number of others such as the Howa or Sako. Come to think of it, a really nifty litle .250 would result from rebarreling a Remington Model 7.
I just bought a Rem. 700 Classic in .250 and am anxious to wring it out....
