[QUOTE="rdsii64, post: 403868, member: 13978"] Assume the shooter's intent is long range varmint hunting. Maximum range is 600 yards. The shooter wants good barrel life and more Horsepower than a 223 for launching 75 grain bullets. Choosing between a fast twist 22-250 and a 243 which is the better choice and why. To keep this an apples to apples comparison, assume both rifles have the following: Same factory short action 26 inch barrel from the same barrel maker. a twist appropriate for 75 grain bullet launch a 75 grain bullet at 3350 FPS [/QUOTE]
