[QUOTE="Craig-TX, post: 20760, member: 39"] I’ll go ahead and weigh in with the 22-250 for small varmints. It’s a great round. Of course, if you want to get more exotic there are the 220 Swifts that aren’t nearly as available these days. Those rounds are almost magical. Or the 25.06 or the 22.250 Improved, or many others. It might be old fashioned but I’ll also have to admit that one of my favorites is the 30.06. I like to carry a M-1 Garand. IMO it’s the best battle rifle ever built by anyone anywhere and the peep sites don’t mind some banging around in the pickup. Anybody who had to qualify on a 700 or 1,000 yard range in the service knows that peep sights are extremely accurate at great ranges. On the other hand, as my eyesight slowly degrades I do appreciate a scope more. I just don’t like having to baby a scoped rifle. Bottom line, use whatever you can shoot straight with.
