[QUOTE="Bowhunter57, post: 381630, member: 24203"] matt_3479, The .22-250 is hard to beat...therefore its' reputation as "the varmint caliber". It offers the flatest trajectory, excellent accuracy, several bullet weights/choices and several good manufacturers. I'm very partial to the Savage/Stevens line of rifles, due to their out-of-the-box accuracy. :cool: Often the caliber choice can be determined by your location. Bullets skips and ricochets can be a varmint hunter's nightmare with residential housing as a background. If this isn't a concern, then there's even more options in calibers. :) I use a RRA A4 Varmint .223 for groundhogs, but I use a Stevens .25-06 for coyotes. Good luck with your choices! Good hunting, Bowhunter57 [/QUOTE]
