[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 422352, member: 505"] I have several 22 cal varmint rifles. My favorites of the ones I own are the 22-250, 22-250 AI and 220 wby rocket which is about all you can get out of a blown out 220 swift. The two primary reasons they are not mentioned on this forum is they are not big game legal and the wind plays havoc on the little 22 bullets at long range making them not a good choice for serious long range work. On a calm day I have made some amazing shots with mine but just a little wind can take the little 22 bullets way off target. Particularly when the wind is blowing one way where you are, the canyon has a big updraft and then the wind shifts again on the other side. The little 22 bullet just gives up and says what am I suppose to do. The new heavy high bc 22 bullets are stretching out the 22's for varmints for the guys who have twist rates to shoot them.
