I've thought about a 22-250.
Flat and accurate.
Havent decided yet between that and goin big bore.
Carrying a gun isn't about killing.
It's about staying alive.

I'm trying to decide between a .222Rem or .223. I already know what make and model.
The Doctor said I should drink more whiskey. Also, I'm calling myself 'The Doctor' now.

The .222 was the cartridge that held the world record bench shooting record at 100 and 200yds for decades.

Yes but that was then, I am not saying it is not worth looking at but, for the same money in rifle your ammo is probably A LOT cheaper for the .223.

Dad's got a .222 Rem. Mag. That's an awesome round. Got pushed out by the .223, though. There's no ammo even made for it anymore.
