Title: 22-250 Owners...
Post by: KillZ 4 Thrilz on January 24, 2010, 10:21:36 AM: My hunting partner is looking to buy a 22-250 for varmit control in his orchards. He's not looking for the best of the best u could say, just a good shooting rifle for some fun. If you guys got any good info i could share with him about purchasing one of these, it would be much appreciated. Thanks.

+1, I think Cabelas has them scoped in 22-250 for around $360.

Black Sheep in Idaho had a Remington SPS blued bull barrel for $504 when I bought this, but I didn't want the heavy barrel

The trigger can be easily adjusted yourself... took me a few minutes...
