The majority of guys never find out just how deadly the 22/250 can be because as coming from the factory all the barrels are usually 1-14 twist designed for shooting the light bullets! I have a 1-7" ROT that shoots excellent using the Sierra 90 gr. VLD using 35.5 gr. H4350! If a yote stops and looks back from 600....his ass is grass!!


Even birds know not to land downwind!

Some love em but when I leave the .22-250 class rifle, I want a bigger case than the 243..

Wisely spoken unless you happen to live in a windless area, if there is such a thing. At that range even my 25-06 1:10 twist takes a back seat to my 270 with good BC. Used a 7mm Rem Mag Colt Light Rifle done by Melvin for years but I don't tolerate recoil well anymore.
