I went prairie dog shooting two year ago and took along a .223, .243 and a .308 because I felt like it. I have since sold/traded off the .308 and .243. I going shooting again this June and am wanting a second rifle to go with the .223 I currently have. I've been reading and watching videos on the .204 Ruger vs the .223 and 22-50 but most of the information was on ballistics. The problem I had with the .243 and .308 was the recoil, I couldn't see where my rounds were hitting so I could adjust my aim. With the .223 no problem. I could just buy another .223 but variety is the spice of life. I've been interested in the .204 ever since I was introduced but never shot or bought one. One of the guys I hunted with two years ago was using a 22-250 but I didn't try it out. Looking for some comment and recommendations based on experience. I really like the idea of a very low recoiling rifle like the .204 but would I be better off with the 22-250? I reload so I don't have to rely on factory ammo.
