    UPDATE 07/15/2014 100 & 200 YARDS The weather conditions was satisfactory again. Unfortunately, I had run out of some of the ammos used at 50Y, most regrettably the Eley Target (yellow box) which seemed to stay the most consistent through the RAR. I was able to get off 5 rounds of the Eley...

    i was going to cast a vote for the .22-250, though with the 16.5" barrel and loss of velocity i don't know if it'll matter between the two without running numbers, though you'ld have more case capacity to play with the 22-250 if you reload, especially with if considering using the heavier /...
