Remington 700 VTR in caliber 22-250 Remington a few years ago - thankfully it shoots the smaller, frangible, Varmint type bullets real well though. I think it has a 1 in 9" twist rate (IIRC). It is a cool gun - I think. Of course Remington Arms Corporation is "kaput" these days so you will have to look for one of these on the used gun markets. Good luck in your quest.

Congratulations?!? In fairness however,do NOT slight how "REAL" said delusions are to her. Hint. Fhuqking LAUGHING! Teeker don't get a whole lot right,but the 8" RPM '250's connect dots,whether in OEM guise or punched Speedmire. Hint. They'll Smooch and pinwheel 88's,which is a .545 BC and crushes their HILARIOUS 10" RPM 243 Win offerings. Hint. Easily the most bang for the buck and if they're on Whittaker's shelf,you are fhuqking nuts not to be making those phones ring. Hint. Just sayin'..................

None of which is subjective. Hint. While I'd prefer a 7" RPM 223 Rem were it offered(and Teeker REALLY fhuqks up their non-CTR 223 mags)...the 8" Teeker '250 is a NASTY Bitch and rather sound in issued guise. Hint.

Shipments landed not long ago and I expect inventories to deplete soon. Hopefully shipping will increase over the next few months. And Ruger should have standardized the twist in the American too.

Hint.(grin) Flipside being,the 8" version of same will do them all,save the one furthest to the right. Mechanics matter. Hint.................

Hint. The 88 ELD is longer than the Sugar 90 grainer,by .070" and of course has a better BC. The 95 grain Sugar is .070" longer than the 88. Which makes the 88 VERY tough to whoop,when weighing precision,consistency,logistics,terminal effects,flight characteristics and even cost. The 90 Sugar is several steps backwards,in all of those things. Hint................ Brad says: "Can't fault Rick for his pity letting you back on the fire... but pity it was and remains.

The T3x receiver introduces a widened angular ejection port making it easier to feed one cartridge at a time, and extra screw placements on top of the receiver to robustly attach a Picatinny rail. The Lite models are equipped with the T3x synthetic stock with modular pistol grip and forend capabilities. It comes with the classic low-angled grip. This 22-250 Remington model has a blued barrel with a 1:8" rate of twist.”

Great gun, shot 40 BT's, 75 ELD, 75 Swifts and about anything I cared to try real darned well. If you wanted an accurate 22-250 the price on them is about as good as it gets. Semper Fi
