[QUOTE="Ksmirk, post: 836568, member: 880"] This could be argued for years! nothing against the argument but with each post a different opinion will be generated. There are a mess of "What if's" and it's that for about anything you ASK an opinion for, some folks think the smallest thing to shoot a deer with would be a 300WM! some may think that caliber to be the minimum! the biggest thing I can see is if you practice with your rifle (more than a box a season) pick your shots and the most important put the bullet where it's supposed to go will make for good clean human kills. A 22-250 is packing more powder and power BUT how much is left after it goes thru? 40%, 70%? ya never know what that bullets gonna do after it makes contact with the game! funny I have shot deer with everything from a 223 to 308 and ya know the deer have died! did one kill better than the other? I know that when the rifle went BOOM there was a dead deer! don't know an easier way to say it fella's. Later, Kirk [/QUOTE]
