.22-250 vs. .243
i know which rifle im gonna get (savage 12FV) but i dunno which caliber to get....
i will be using it for long range shots out to 400 yards or so on yotes, fox, crows, chucks, etc. i dont care bout the hides so i was just wondering which one shoots flatter and is more accurate with factory varmint cartridges from remington, winchester, etc.
just wnana know which one is more accurate and flat shooting.
thx for the help

RE: .22-250 vs. .243
You might think about the .243WSSM, pretty much get the best of both worlds, hypervelocity and more knockdown power...I'm planning on one soon myself! I'm leaning towards the Winchester Coyote, but that might change when I can handle a Savage model in the WSSMs.
