I shot the Swifts more than the 22-250AI's and the 223AI retired all of 'em and is my MAINSTAY. I've put over 4000rds through a couple Swifts and they kept hanging them in there.
My 308 VSSF likely has my personal record for hyper temperatures and insane round counts in a single outing. It is still incredibly accurate and I could not begin to speculate how many cases of milsurp ball I've whistled through it but it would be impressive to actually know.
I'm a firm believer in that some barrels seemingly refuse to puke. I've been purposely trying to ruin that 308 tube for a long while and it shrugs the abuse happily.
With today's lasers and good glass,the Big 22's no longer truly interest me. The 223AI is the ticket IMHO................

The Gopher Rifle and Revolver Club in Minnesota has a 1000yd range. The guys tell me they like the 260/308 and the 6.5/284 almost equally. Legend has it one brave soul shot 300 gr boatails out of his 338 magnum. You shoot 20 shots prone in this match and he said he really had to dig his toes in to keep from sliding back. That load should be big enough for most any varmints!
