What calibur are you looking for? What are you wanting to do with the gun? Varmints, paper, other?
This Vortex has some good reviews.
From what little I can find, the .273 model was produced for the Shot Show only; can’t find anything about .308 or .300 WM, but it seems there just aren’t many for sale. Probably now collector items, and appreciating in value.
Shooting for fun. Maybe an occasional varmint hunt.
No prairie dogs in these here parts, though. Probably have to head out to the panhandle for that.
That’s what I was thinking. The .223 is not going to be a precision long range gun, but would be fine for small varmints and cheap to shoot.
Then you have lots of choices. More if you reload. 243 is a good all-round caliber. It's a tack driver with various offerings, including deer pills.
I like those big turrets.
Cabelas has 22/250 and 308 in stainless.
Man, that’s a nice rifle.
Hey, Ted Nugent will be over in your neck of the woods for a good cause.

Sweet!
But the stainless is ~$200 more than the one I was looking at. 22-250 is kind of a hot round, ain’t it?
I’ll have to keep that in mind.
Looks like the libtards are not happy (read comments)...
I know nothing of the 22/250. Wish I did though.
I guess I’ve read it’s kind of a hot rod round, but I’m not sure.
4,000 fps!!
E. Arthur Brown Company is having an end of year sale.
Whoa!,.......that’s a rocket huh?
BACON!
I just ordered 5 add’l cases of MRE/ Yoder’s Canned Bacon. I ate the first case in BLTs, and gave some cans can away to family & friends. Delicious!

...and 1 case of MRE/ Yoder’s Hamburger-Ground Beef

Both have a 10yr life, and are going into the basement shelves’ preps.
I might just get some of the ground beef.
CCW here in Colorado is not tied to a particular gun. I would be leery of providing the statists any gun serial numbers.
How is it different that a an AR? Except it’s purdy and won’t scar the Libtards as much?
I can see why it would be a popular varmint load.

I probably won’t be doing enough of that sort of thing to justify the extra $$ & effort.
