texhookem,
I guess I'm not willing to horribly wound a great game animal in an effort to rack up "macho points" by doing it with a 22. If it isn't for "macho points", then why do it at all? To prove a point? Why? texhookem, I did answer your simple question, I said I'm sure it will kill a whitetail if properly placed. Also, you responded to something I wrote back to Fiahblade who said that several of us were dumb for not beleiving in the 22-250. Additionally I responded to zrexpilot who remarked about "fist sized holes" in his venison. I'm sure you can kill whitetail with a 22-250, I just don't know why you'd take a chance on wounding game when another rifle caliber can better do the job. I also know "a guide" that regularly hunts feral hogs with a spear, but I don't consider it a sane act. I responded as honestly as possible to your question, I'm sorry you didn't like my answer.
