Default Guess I am with the majority

I have had a "stable" of 22-250 when the boys still lived on the farm but with 12 or 14 twist designed for varmint bullets I feel it is the wrong choice for long range (600 -1000 yards). Killed a couple coyotes at 600 with hope shots but probably missed a lot more than I have hit. All kinds of choices in the 6 to 6.5 mm bullets for long range and even a fast twist .223 with 80 grains has had a lot of long range success for those who wanted to back off the tried and proven 308. 22-250 although I am a big fan I don't feel it has that distance built in.
