Default RE: 17 0r 22 0r 204 ???

I have a very accurate 204 but it doesn't handle winds very well. And only shoots the 32gr bullet well. Doesn't like 40gr. I like the 22-250 over the 204. Fast, but handles heavier bullets well.
i also have a .204 that is a decent shooter, less than 1" @ 100, useally.85-.750" groups depending on how i'm shooting that day[&:][:@][:-]( handi-rifle) and i have a rem 700 in 22-250, the 22-250 is a much better choice IMO, i like the 204 and have killed several yotes out to 200 yrds. but the wind does get a hold of it in a hurry. and like BC, mine like the lighter bullets better so far anyway

here is one i shot with the 204 a little less than 150 yrds




this one was a hair under 200yrds with a stong crosswind 8-12mph i was aminig at her ear


but i really like my 22-250 better, but its also in a higher end rifle, the handi is my cheap throw around go shoot some yotes rifle[&:]
