22/250AI or 22 Dasher

[Coleridge]

Kicking around the idea of building me a hot .224. It will be a walking wieght varminter mostly a coyote/vermin gun. I'd like for it to finish no more than 11lbs,prefer closer to 10).

What are you guys opinion of the two chamberings. I have no experience with the dasher but have a 250 & once had a swift,I'm sure the preformance would be similar). I also have a 6br and really like the lapua brass


Any insight/opinions?

I don't know about the Dasher but have a switch barrel rig with several .22-250 A.I. barrels and can vouch for the velocity of the .22-250. One of my pet loads for the 1-14" barrel is a healthy dose of H380 behind a 50 grn. Nosler Ballistic Tip at 4150 ft/s. It is deadly accurate and should drop coyotes like a sack of potatoes. I use it on PA groundhogs with great success.
