I have a few 22'250's also..and all shoot very well..like you I also have a 220 Swift..Cooper Single shot..always reload for it..its a tackdriver...and yes..turns p-dogs as well as other that size into mist..or very disfigured..:)

I really enjoy both..have used the 22-250's a lot for everything from varmints to deer and pronghorn..works very well..agree with the article..u can get 22-250 ammo everywhere..220 Swift is not as common..but most gun shops here have on flavor or another..have a friend who actually uses his Swift on elk..neck shots only..has taken dozens doing so..
