Looks like the 22-250 figures are right in line with useing a 338 Winchester magnum for elk. Which many argue is the "perfect" elk cartridge.

So why is it acceptable to use less gun per pound of animal when we go after animals like the cape buffalo but when it comes to animals like deer we have to go so far overboard with the "guns" that we use.

ALL OF THIS IS ASSUMING ONE WOULD USE A PROPERLY CONSTRUCTED BULLET FOR THE "JOB" AT HAND.
