[QUOTE="shanman2004, post: 546405, member: 36782"] ok so now you got me thinking a little. But more along the lines i dont need 2 22-250 with 26 in barrles. And i keep reading how easy it is to swap a barrel on a savage. So i have a model 12 savage in 22-250 And im liking the idea of a 243 or 243ai. Correct me if im wrong but a 243 ai should get a 95-105 grain bullet moving about 3100 or so? So thing is if i do that I would like to keep the barrel around 20-22 in. probly keep it a hevy barrel and have it fluted. So could someone point me in the right direction to get a barrel, head space gauge, and barrel wrench. Also correct me if im wrong again but i should be able to use the same bolt head? My only other question shoud this be good for a 600 yard ground hog. I am wanting to keep around a 100 grain bullet for two reasons. one we have some big like 70lb + coyotes/coydogs. two i always enjoy the splat factor lol and i live in ohio so i only get to shoot pd once every couple of years. So its mainly groundhogs and coyotes and i have been looking for a new calling rifle... [/QUOTE]
