I really like the .22-250. I have a cheapy Rem 783 that I basically got for free because I had $300 in Cabela's gift cards to use and got it on sale for $250. But with a 1:14 twist it only stabilizes 50 grain and lighter bullets. So I'm gonna put it on Armslist.

I've been looking at Savage because they can be had with 1:9 twist. Then I found out the X-Bolt is also offered with a 1:9 twist.

The Browning website lists alot of information about their firearms and one being the action length. The .204 Ruger, .223 Rem and .22-250 Rem are listed as "SSA" action length. I checked the .243 model, but that listed as "Short Action".

Does anyone know if Browning is using the Super Short Action receiver on their X-Bolt? I thought this action length was discontinued.
