[QUOTE="Steve Streeper, post: 1671224, member: 107404"] I agree 100% with getting Dad what he is leaning toward. Back in the 70's I shot a lot with my brother-in-law, who shot a .22-250. I was shooting a .25-'06 AI with 75 gr HP bullets (can't remember brand). Most of our shots were 200-300 yds out, so both guns were handling it very well. If we'd been shooting at 400-600 yds, I'd have gone to an 87 gr bullet. The .22-250 is a sweet-shooting gun and the recoil is very light, so that might just be the ticket for Dad. In fact, I wish I had one!! [/QUOTE]
