New Varmit Rifle?

Smallblock I have owned .17 HMR, .17 Fireball, 220 Swift and .22-250, .223 and a .204. I can tell you that I love my Savage .22-250 You could even take down a whitetail easily with this caliber. 8) At 4,000 fps the .22-250 makes ground hogs and rock chucks literally explode and coyotes don't leave long blood trails. I have mine zero'd at 300 yards and shoot flat out to that. Here is what a 250 can do.

I would also look at the .204 caliber that is out there now.
