Model 11 Trophy Predator Hunter .223 vs. Something else comparable price.

600-700 seams like a little bit of a stretch for a 223. I would think maybe 400yds for game. Go out farther for target.

If you reload, I would go with something a touch faster, like a 22-250( would not cost much more per round reloaded).

I am sure someone with more knowledge than me will chime in.

I do reload, and I'm talking only of shooting milk jugs or steel targets at 600-700 yards which we already do with our other centerfire rifles. Just looking for adv opinion on the rifle's capability.

.22-250 does in fact cost much more to reload for me because I already have a nice collection of .223 brass and you're looking at 1.5-2x the powder burned in the 250.
