Looks like I'm on the Bandwagon again. .22-250 Rem. For reasons of more readily available brass, NOT having to fireform Your brass, the .22-250 casehead will match the boltface of what was originally used/chambered for a 7mm-08 (the .223 will not match). You'd have to replace the bolthead if You went with the .223 AI. I'd stick with the Classic. It remains king, anyway. .22-250 Remington.
