Allen,
The least expensive route is to put a decent scope on the 721 you have and get it sighted in properly. There has been some good advice given in the other posts.
Some practice at targets will help immensely, even at still targets. Learn to shoot offhand (standing) because that is what you are most likely to be doing when you shoot at the varmint(s). If you can get the rifle steadied over a rest or the hood of a vehicle, etc. before the critters show up, that makes a world of difference, but may be impractical.
The advice about the .22-250 and the .243 are spot on, but not absolutely necessary. Main thing is to learn to shoot [i]well[/i] with whatever rifle you choose.
Myron
