I'm thinking of pursuing varmints again. Used to do it way back with a
22-250 which I sold quite a few years ago.
Here's my querry. Is the .223 WSSM a good round? Is it worth buying a varmint rifle in that cal. or to stick with a proven workhorse like a 22-250 or .220 Swift?
Will these super hot SSM's burn out a barrel quicker than a Swift?
Who's got experience with the .223WSSM?
Also, do I buy a bolt gun or go to a single shot?
I'm not a veteran varminter. Ijust messed around with chucks, foxes and coyotes on farms in Jersey.The .22-250 was a bolt. Does it matter? I know single shots lock up tight and usually give up great accuracy which is what I want if I do this. Ok guys, give me your feedback!
