I am looking for accurate 22-250 for dog and coyotes. All though the gun will see more time at range than hunting. Recommendations please.
Try different, dare I say better, ammo.Ok guys. I need a off the shelf bolt action 22-250. I plan to mostly use as target gun that I can coyote hunt with occassionly. I currently have a Ruger American and vortex diamondback scope that is fair but not often MOA at 100 yds
Tikka Varmint, they shoot, no bull shit!!!I am looking for accurate 22-250 for dog and coyotes. All though the gun will see more time at range than hunting. Recommendations please.

As has been mentioned, go with the lowest twist rate you can find. I didn’t know Tikka made a 1-8 version 22-250. That would be my pick.
Ran my 22-250 on a BigHorn TL-2 with DBM and AI .308 mags no problem for the entire life cycle of the barrel.I've got a howa .22-250 that i bought several years back in the kryptek hogue stock. That hogue stock is flimsy as hell but I haven't invested in a better one because I haven't been able to find much info on using dbm's with those rounds. I've been told they can cause feeding issues. I may just end up going with an H&S with internal mag, but just curious if anyone has any recommendations for running this caliber out of dbm's. Are most having to modify mags to ensure more reliable feeding? I primarily just run factory ammo.
Good to know. I just sold mine to swap it out for a T1x so I'm out of the .22-250 game for now, but I'll keep that in mind if I end up with one again. I know back when the Oryx chassis came out MDT didn't inspire much confidence that I would have the best of luck running my .22-250 in it so I got a little gun shy (no pun intended) spending the money to try.Ran my 22-250 on a BigHorn TL-2 with DBM and AI .308 mags no problem for the entire life cycle of the barrel.
