I don't know what you been smokin, but that 223 ain't no where near a 22-250... never has been, never will be... I was first associated with the 223 in the late 60's and the best day of my life was the day I bought my first 22-250 in 72... never looked back... and surely don't miss the 223...
The 223 can be loaded to near 22/250 velocity, with a lot less powder. So, in my opinion the 223 is a hands-down winner.
Isn't it great how everyone can have opinions!
I'm just curious as to your reasoning why the 22-250 is "better" than a 223.
