I've had 3 or 4 of the .22-250s and they shot OK but never had a tack driver. Ended up with a Savage 12BV with the 26" bull barrel and it is 1 hole gun.

Regret selling that one actually, but at the time I didn't have much interest in any postmil that wasn't a 284. Picked up a late 80's 99C this spring with a nice figure in the stock.
