Nowdays you can get AR's in .300 short, .308, .260, .243, .223, and .204.
Does anyone build them in .22/250? This seems like it would be a super addition to the varmint variants.
What do you think?

22-250 is a great round but will not fit into an AR magazine.
.223 or 5.56 is a good varmint round believe it or not. You can
send a 40 grn at around 3800 fps. What's wrong with that?

A .223 or a 5.56 will do anything a 22-250 will do.  And do it better.  When my daughters 22-250 gets burned out it'll become a 6.5/08 to overcome it's slow twist problems.  It seems as though the break point of a fast twist is around .24 cal.  

 A 22-250 would require a AR10 type rifle.  That caliber has been tried and seems to not work.  Same goes for a fast twist bolt gun in the same caliber.  Feeding problems (AR) and burnt barrels in both.

 Go with a good .223 or 5.56 'Match' type and you'll be happy    If a 22-250 were easy.  It'd be on your list of available calibers.
