RR, I 100 % agree with you in all aspects!!!!!

I shoot several .22 Centerfire from 22-250 pistol to .220 Swift and have both shot and loaded 55grn 243 and have yet to see it out perform them.
I as well shoot a Accuracy International AWM in .338 Lapua Magnum for work and that is without question a 'yote slammer far farther than 98% of the regular shooting world can comprehend. That and if you have a spare 10K-12K laying around for rifle and glass, why not?!?!?!
Nothing like watching a 225grn Lapua round slam into a yote at 1200-1500yds and see a hole the size of you fist out the other side. But at $5-$7 around downrange, not very profitable.

i'm partial to the 220 swift , loaded with 55 gr. hornady v-max, 4064 powder. longest coyote kill shot was at 423 yds

GREAT LOAD!!!!! My Savage 112BVSS likes the same load and with 50grn Nosler Bal. Tip with CCI BR primers. Prints both well inside MOA. My Ruger M77V likes 4895 with Sierra BTHP's.

If you can't get a Swift to print with 4064 or 4895 it more than likely will not. Same with a 22-250, if it will not print with H380, it more than likely will not as well.

Sheridan...I envy You being able to go up in the mountains...thats gotta be pretty cool to sit up high and hunt any Big Game Animals or Predators!

You and a few other long-range/short range even gas range Predator/Varmint Coyote Hunters need to joing www.204Ruger.com and talk about the different Rifles You have and share in the info...heck You may already be a Member there?

Picked up my CZ-USA Varmint Rifle last week...got lucky and it had the rings stored away inside some bubble wrap tucked away in the styro-foam packaging!It states that the "Varmint" doesn't come with rings...the "American" does tho...guess I got lucky and those babies are expensive!Now to pick a nice scope...thinking about getting one of the new Leupolds in Camo....they look pretty cool!

I will let everyone know how it goes when I sight my new Rifle in and hiw accurate the "Varmint" heavy barrel is to shoot! :D ;)
