    222 vs 22-250

    One of my many musings that i do from time to time
    Considering the good things that fast twist 222/223s are doing with the heavier projectiles is doing the same thing with a 22-250 more of a good thing or just not required?
    Or is it just getting too close to a lighter projectile 243?
    I suppose the light 243 bullets are generally varmint whereas the heavy 22s are more deery?
    The heavies work in a 222 but get pushed too hard by the 250?
    22-250 is fatter, less in the mag, more powder, potentially a slightly bigger action?
    Pros and cons?
