Default WSSM 223 any good??

My reason for asking is that i am in the market for a new varmit gun. my current single shot 223 just isnt filling the bill anymore. I came across a Browning Abolt 2 WSSM 223 with exactly 8 rounds through the pipe for a good deal. well actually a trade for one of my sigs. But anyways i dont know much about these guns, ive read that they have the same ballistics as a 22-250. And also heard they have problems burning up the barrels, but that is only with handloads. i dont ever intend to hand load. Im just going to be using it for varmits. Would this be a good round for my intentions, and what are some pro;s and cons i should be aware off. also is ammo more expensive than the reg 223?? thankyou in advance for all you inputs.
