[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 922872, member: 10291"] I bought a Savage Predator in 22-250 with a 1:9 twist a few tears ago for coyotes with the same range requirement. It has quickly become one of my favorite rifles, being superbly accurate with just about anything I feed it. I had plans for all sorts of loadwork but never bothered. For break in I bought a few boxes of cheap Remington 55 gr SP promo loads for $7 a box that consistently shot dime sized groups at 200 yards, and easily hit baseball sized targets at 500 yards. Same thing with Vmax, Accutips etc. I never bothered to reload. A few of my buddies have 204's, a nice round, and also quite accurate to 300 yards or so, but 500 yard work is difficult with windy conditions. IMO. [/QUOTE]
