I am thinking about purchasing a 22-250 this summer for coyotes and any other small animal i want to shoot with it. I would like to know what you guys reccomend as far as brand and model of rifle goes. I want to try to keep the price under or at $500. I was thinking along the lines of a Rem. Model 7 since i already have one in .243 and I really like it. Really i dont need a new gun for coyote since i have my .243 but i just want a new gun to play with!ThanksJesse
I've been playing with a 22-250 this summer and for me it's a pretty useless cartridge seeing as I have a 243 that will shoot as fast with 55's and better long range with 70's than the 22-250. Personally, if you already have a 243 I'd look at a 223 for the great selection of factory loads, better barrel life. I'm rebarrelling my 22-250 to 250-3000 I've had much better results on deer with the 250 than the 243 and the 250 works quite well with cast bullets for small game hunting.AWS
Hey guys thanks for your help. Might just load some lighter bullets for my .243 and buy a better scope, since all i have on it now is a cheap bushnell.
Atomicjoe23: I think if i had to choose between either the Howa or the Savage-stevens i would go with the savage just because the howa is made in japan. Just my humble opinion.
