[QUOTE="rugers, post: 1671165, member: 61920"] I live in south Dakota and hunt prairie dogs the 22-250 is fine for those ranges, and hornaday makes fine ammo for that round, Black hills ammo is pretty good also and there are alot of people on line who will custom load ammo for it also. I personally use a 223 and a 243 but mostly use the 243 although a little better in the wind not much ,but the 243 is afar superior coyote rifle. In S.D. you can hunt deer with a 22-250 but the range is limited. But in all honesty I've killed prairie dogs out past 800 yds with a 223 just get the best scope you can afford, and go get some dogs. Also the 204 ruger is from what I witnessed a little lacking at that range. [/QUOTE]
