In Texas both rimfire and centerfire cartirdges are legal. In the past I have taken alot of them while deer hunting in the fall. While using a 22rf, 22 hornet, 223, 220 swift, 22-250 both in handguns or rifles a head shot or a shot at the base of the neck works well for me. I have taken them at 10 yards and a couple at distances stretching to several hundred yards. If it's legal in your state I dont see why people have a problem with it. Hitting small targets isnt easy and one should know his or her limitations. I do however love spring turkey hunting and use a shotgun exclusively during it but in the fall if a good gobbler is seen and all I have is one of my trusty rifles I just might tag em.
