Get you a .223. They are cheap and a wide variety of off the shelf loads. A Steven 200 can be had for around $300.

i can never seem to find time to make it to either a gun shop where my friend got his nef .223, or walmart, or even my uncles for that matter, so while we wait if you had to pick one caliber(even if you dont have that caliber) for an all around varmint gun what would it be?

For me and what I use my varmint gun for, Coyotes, Fox and a few pesky varmints the best caliber is a .204 Ruger around a Savage Model 11 in a synthetic stack topped with a Leupold VX-II 3x9-40mm!

Plus it's a fun Gun to shoot!

you could also look into a stevens 200 they are basically a savage very accurate kind of rough looking but if you are hunting with it it will look worse anyway in my opinion
