22-250 rifles

There is nothing better than 22-250 for varmints when the weather conditions include light winds. Stiff winds shove the bullet a bunch at longer ranges. I never liked the 22-250 for coyotes as the recoil always took me of target and allowed the second coyote to escape. 223 way just a deadly and allowed the second deadly shot.
 
I was out on a deer scouting trip down by Aravica jct. I brought my ruger #1 22-250 with my handloads of 40 grain ballistic tips @3950 muzzle.

I was creeping along a two track. I look to my right, big jack sitting 125 yards away.
I leveled on him. Two pops, one from the rifle and one from a jack exploding. Good thing I wasn’t hunting food 😂.
 
Tikka T3. I have had it for a long time. Scope is a Bushnell Elite 3200. It shoots well with my handloads.
