dont go with a 204. they are great guns but they dont have the range that a 223 or a 250 has. as far as it goes between a 223 and a 22-250 goes, hard choice. i have had both and loved both. i still have the 250 only because the 223 got stolen. i have used the 223 to shoot coyotes out to 350yds. and the 22-250 out to almost 450yds. the main draw back about the 204 is it shoots a small bullet, yeah, its faster than sin, but it dont have it at distance and it drifts alot more than the 22 centerfires do.
I beg to differ....you may want to check out the ballistics of the 204 vs the 223 and the 22-250. The 204 is much flatter than both and beats both in velocity, bullet drop, and wind driftout to 500 yards
