SWAMPMAN the question had nothing to do with your oppinion on whether or not i should use my 22-250 did it? Especially after I put i do not want a debate in my original post i would imagine you would keep your thoughts to yourself. If i honestly believed using my 22-250 was to risky and inhumane i sure as hell would not use it.

SWAMPMAN please stop I really do not want to argue with you, and what does a coyote have to with me using my 22-250 on deer?

texhookem,
OK, Peace. Let's just agree to disagree. Good luck to you.

My final statement to you is that i do not want to use my 22-250 to rack up MACHO POINTS. I simply want to use it so i can put the SMALL TEXAS DOE down quickly and humanely. I do not want to go back through the fact that i would not use it on a larger bodied deer.

alright good luck to you

i just want to add something. the 22-250 works fine on deer. two of my cousins in kentucky used on just fine to kill many 200 # kentucky deer. in capable hands it's fine. but the person shooting it has to be sure of himself and ability.

Wounding ? Ha Ha ! Ive never seen a deer walking around with fist size holes in their chest . LOL
22-250 is a fine deer cartridge. Specially when deer here rarely exceed 150 lbs.But If ever I got to hunt 300lb deer up north, well then I would have to step up to my .243.
But I guess for some of you who cant shoot and need something to take down a gut shot deer quickly go for nothing less then a .300. Ha Ha. LOL.

AH, SwampMan I have a .22-250. Would you invite me on your lease
for just one deer? I'll give you half of it!

Rebel Hog,
You're welcome anytime but leave the pop-gun at home unless we're ginna shoot coyotes.

Dang,, I guess I leave my handirifle in 22 hornet home..I was so looking to headshoot a doe this year
