I'm trying to decide between these two calibers. I don't handload and the Federal ammuntion catalog shows me only 2 offerings for the .220 Swift. However, those 2 offerings outperform pretty much any 22-250 load....though not by much. The best 220 Swift drops 27 inches at 500 yards, the best 22-250 drops 28.8. Nota big difference in velocity either. Also, 22-250 retains more energy at longer range due to heavier bullets.

One mark against the 220 is that it isn't offered in many production rifles and most of them are rather spendy save for the Ruger etc.

What do you guys think?
Do you have a rifle in 220 or 22-250? Which one and how does it perform?

Thanks in advance.
