I've had both and liked both, but I think If I was to ever have the choice again, I'll take the 22-250...
The swift was very nice, fast, accurate, but was hard on Win cases...I'd only get 3-4 loadings out of them before they were gone...2 of my favorite loads were 40g VLC at 4550fps, and 55g NBT at 3925fps. Both these shot under .5" at 100 yards out of my Ruger Target. Both bullets accounted for a few coyotes...
The 22-250 was Winchester sporter and I shot 55g NBT's at 3600fps, or 40g NBT at 4100fps. A good bit slower, but no coyote or varmint ever knew the difference. Cases last at least 10 firings and you burn 10g less powder..
