It's kind of like shooting .22 hornet upto .220 swift at deer. MOST PEOPLE SHOULD NOT DO IT.
I shoot .22 hornet .222 and .22-250 depending where i'm hunting. short range hornet,long range
.22-250 people think I'm crazy (might be) lol until they see the damage they do on deer using
correct bullet.
The biggest thing is knowing YOUR abilities and surroundings as long as you don't exceed them
you should be ok out to about 100 yards

IMO .222 or .223 would be a better choice if you reloadreduced loadsyou can takerabitts squirrels ect.
at long range (good practice) and still eat them

know your abilities before you pull the trigger
just my opinion thx and good luck
