6.5 Creedmoor or a 22-250?


Looking to get a new rifle. As the title might have indicated I am between a 6.5 Creedmoor or a 22-250. The Creedmoor is less expensive but the Nikon 3x9 on it is unacceptable but I have more use for a Creedmoor. On the other side. 22-250 is cheap to shoot, it will help me learn how to compensate for wind, and the glass is of better quality and magnification but I really do not have a need for the caliber. It's too big for turkey, in my opinion its too small for deer, and in eastern South Dakota there is not much for Varmint hunting without driving 3 or 4 hours. Essentially, one will be more useful but requires upgrades first, the other is cheap to shoot and can make me a better shooter.
