RE: Which caliber to complete this trio
I picked the .204 Ruger. It is a great rifle for coyote and smaller game. It doesn't have the recoil or the muzzle blast of the 22-250 and you can see the target explode through the scope when you pull the trigger. If you reload it becomes more economical than the 22-250 as it uses less powder. The barrels don't get nearly as hot as the overbored 22. My next choice would be the .223. It's a very under rated caliber when it comes to varmint hunting.
