well, let's look at your first assumption. that is, that a destination to
205.10.50.x ( /24 ) will be matched by 205.10.1.0 during a route lookup. or
to put it another way, if you have two routes in your routing table:

S 205.0.0.0  (default gateway interface )
C 205.10.1.0 ( interface whatever )

which one will a destination of 205.10.50.x match?

that said, you can add policy routing, and give yourself a different kind of
flexibility.

let's look at the route-map structure, and see how it operates.

start with your access-lists.

access-list 1 permit 205.10.1.0 0.0.0.255
access-list 2 permit 205.0.0.0 0.255.255.255

I'm going to assume for argument's sake that at this time you have no other
destinations you want to reach.

route-map 205net permit 10
match ip addr which one?
set

now here you have a choice - interface or ip next-hop.

the flexibility gained is that you can modify this route-map to suit your
needs as they change - add more access-lists to reflect different subnets
and add more route-map clauses to reflect the policy requirements.

or you can resort to good old routing. which is easier on the brain. ;->
