22-250 is a very common varmint cartridge (second only to .223/5.56NATO because it's extremely accurate when loaded right and shot from a quality gun)
what they are shooting is an improved 22-250
ie: 22-250 Ackley Improved
the cartridge is the same length (i think), just a larger diameter around the bottom for faster/more uniform powder burn
this (has the potential to) give you much more velocity and with the right twist and bullet grain, accuracy
they're probably shooting polymer tipped bullets too
or hollow point if close enough
rapid expansion of the bullet = gibbbbbs
