Hey guys, I hear ya, I am not going to hunt any coyotes with a .22 magnum or .17 HMR. But what I was looking at buying in the near future is a Savage stevens model 200 bolt action in .22-250. I have heard that the 2 best coyote loads are the .223 and the .22-250. I understand that any rimfire is way underpowered. Plus the ammo isnt that much more expensive than the magnum rimfires ammo. And the Savage .22-250 only costs 279.89! Thats pretty cheap for a .22-250. So guys how does the .22-250 sound for those varmints. Thanks,nc.hunter.
