Wanting a new predator gun, .223, .204, 22-250

My 22-250 critter gitter. 6-18x50 cheap Bushnell scope but it works.

I have to same exact gun and scope.............are we related ?

damn...that's almost scary. I even have the ammo holder thing. I just didn't have it on there for the pic.
Good taste.

T/C Encore 22-250 w/26 inch bull barrel and Bushnell 6x18x50 scope. Works very well I might add.

Forgot, I've had a trigger job done on mine from EABCO. I think it's set at 2 1/2-3 lbs. It's been awhile since it was done.

Mine has a trigger job from a local smith, the Bellm TC's 1x hinge pin, their hammer extender and their heavier hammer springs(no misfires with the extender).
It shoots nicely, outshoots me anyway. This is a 2.5" orange dot at 100 yards.

204s are sweet guns  that strait flatten yotes if you hit em right, but if you have wolf or cougar on the mind as well id go a little larger than even the 22-250 the 243wssm's are sick and i shoot a 6mm with 62gr Barnes varmint grenades  for smallgame and Barnes tipped triple shocks in 80 gr for larger game. Ive never used anything other than Leupold and Burris for glass but i really like both.

Nice setup campmeat, I was gonna say, that looks awefully familiar

Why thank you. I also put my 300 win mag barrel on that frame too. Coyotes hate that gun big time !!! No matter, just big splatter.

[jackelope]

I've got a 300wm barrel for mine too...
Ohh geez this is really getting spooky.

Ok, Ok. How about pistol barrels ? All 15". 308, 450, 454 ?

   ....same here, spooky indeed (well, close .223 and 300wm)

No pistol barrels..... yet, any suggestions?

I have have been thinking about a 223 or 22-250 barrel for my encore, i have 4 barrels (300wm, 45-70, 20ga, 22lr) & 2 frames so far, and i have been watching this post and i just can't decide. i am leaning toward 223, here on the west side i would be surprised if i had a shot over 250 yards.

[jackelope]

.22-250 will work great under 250 or out to 500. I don't think you have that longer range ability with the .223 as was stated earlier. I'd get the .22-250( I guess I already did) that way you're covered for both sides of the hill. They're the same price anyway.
I'm looking for a 12 gauge turkey barrel if anyone's got one collecting dust by the way.

Good site by the way here
