I own both the 55-250mm II, and the STM.
I like the STM better and I just checked Canon Referb's and for some reason the STM is selling for $129.99 and the II is selling for $169.99, I believe it"s an error, but if you can get the STM for that price I'd do it now.

It's no longer the equipment you use that will make you a better photographer, it's the person you look at in the mirror every day.
