Default RE: varmint preditor rifle/caliber help.

I got my hands on a 22-250 this year when i returned from the middle east. Its a Rem 700 VLS with a stainless barrel and a grey laminated stock. This thing has potential but I ran outta monies for decent optics and a trigger job (%^&$ factory trigger is at 6 lbs) and I feel that it will be a one hole rifle out to 200 yards. I can not complane. I have shot lots of 223 (5.56nato) and both are good rounds but i would defanatly go with a heavy 22-250 Its worth the extra money you spend on ammo. I use the 22-250 and the 308win (Rem 700 VLS with trigger down to 2 lbs, pilar bedded, and Lupold MK-4 scope I also use this rig for deer hunting alittle cumbersome but I enjoy it) for varments and when i do my part the rifles do theirs. But in the end its up to you . Just my 2 cents good luck
