Is 223 cheaper to reload than 22-250?

[midwestpredator]

Shot placement is CRUCIAL reguardless.

1X9 in 223 will do up to 69gr and 1x12 in 22-250 will do the long 55gr(sbk and similar) 60gr vmax etc.

5-10 Cents a round could add up quick on a PDog town. Just some food for thought. I like the 22-250 as a predator gun and the 223 as the colony varmint round. Either can be used each way, but i makes sense to use the cheaper round for the higher volume and the other for lower volume shooting...JMO.
