[QUOTE="hoffbill, post: 1969759, member: 75091"] I have a 22-250 in 1:14 twist. Tack driver accuracy. As reported above, it is at it's best with 40gr bullets but it launches them at 4000fps which is considerably faster than the 222 or 223. I can shoot 50-55 gr but not with that excellent accuracy. I have used 243 1:10 twist on coyotes with 58gr Vmax bullets. It gives velocity that rivals the 22-250. The advantage of the 243 is you can load up to 90 gr and use it for larger game or with 75gr varmit bullets on windy days. 243 does have modest recoil, especially with heavier bullets. The 22-250 has a lot of velocity which helps in wind and also makes 40 gr bullets effective at longer ranges than 222 or 223 are capable of, and it has almost no felt recoil. [/QUOTE]
