22-250 Handi-Rifle?
« on: March 20, 2005, 01:30:46 PM »
Does anyone have one of the newer 22-250's? I found a new one at Sportsmans Warehouse and I may pick it up. Has anyone had a chance to shoot one yet? I am curious as to how they will shoot and if they will be another light bullet only rifle.
shot placement is everything.

I have a stainless 22-250 and the best group so far is 3/4 of a inch. I hope this helps and by the way my  22-250 has extrators system and I have not problems so far with ammo sticking.

I have a stainless handi rifle with bull barrel and I have only fired about 40 rounds and I don't like it a whole lot yet. Definately not the groups i had expected with it, but when it quits snowing I'm going to take it out and hopefully it will do a bit better than it was. Best group was about 2 inches at 100.

Hey all, great board!!  
 
My SS .22-250 should be in today. Hope to get it up and running for the last weekend of coyote hunting here in Upstate NY.
 
Price was 259 + tax from a nice area shop owner. It's worth the extra $ to support the guy who sells me powder and slugs.
 
I'll let you know how it behaves out of the box.

Thanks to all. It will be a while before I pick mine up and try it out. I have several new ones to work with as soon as the weather permits.
