    understand..but what Im saying is the 22-250 already replaces the 223 and the 204 to some degree.....by going heavier with the 22-250 you are actually stepping into new territory and leaving all three behind......and nipping into 25-06 range...where as if you keep .22-250 as it is you still running moderately cheap rounds (55grn easy to get too and pretty much anything works Vs expensiver heavier pill) and still have the bigger brother cartridges for the other jobs.....or to put it another way...what will the 6.5x55 do if you have a 22-250 throwing 88grn projectiles??? but its your money and you only person who knows what your needs are.
    bet you bought 223 as figgured the cheaper rounds were a great idea???
    once its gone,your into more costly rounds fullstop...MAYBE running fast twist .223 to chuck heavier projectiles while still being able to handle cheaper bulk amunition might be a financially more sound option????
    75/15/10 black powder matters
