If you're willing to consider an older Yamaha model, I would suggest investigating the YCL-20. I play a Japan-built 20 as my outdoors clarinet and find that it offers superior projection versus the 250. It's the best clarinet for outdoors playing that I've come across, and I've owned most of the usual suspects: Vito V-40, Vito 7214, Bundy 1400, Backun Alpha, Ridenour RCP-576BC, among others.
I've found the plastic used to build the 20 is very, very stable. It does not expand or contract nearly as much as the Vitos I once owned and, as such, the keywork can be regulated with a lot less slop needed to accommodate thermal variances.
If your local music store rents out Yamahas, chances are they'll have a few--and perhaps a few dozen--on hand.
