Kracker you might wanna rephrase that. :haha: My phone went straight to your post when i clicked the link. Lol

Blue started it!!!! He wanted to see her hole!!!!! Lol!!!! Now that's funny.

Here's your picture blue this is the best I can do. Just put you thumb over the antleers and that's what she looked like.:deer:

Sniper!!! Nice shot and :birthday:. The 22-250 is my fav rifle in the box. We can't hunt with them for big game in Canada someone thinks they are to small. I think they needed a bigger gun to make up for the lack of trigger skills. Check out Barn's XXX for the 22-250 if you reload I shoot wildboars with mine out to 500 yards. My colection also include a 243, 270 and a 300WSM for large bolt actions they all shoot with in 2" of each other at 400 with the loads I roll for them.

The remington express rifle rounds I had laying around are pretty much a Target round,they are what I was shooting lastnight and wouldn't want to take a vital shot with these bullets because they have hardly any expansion rate and would have passed right thru her leading to a lengthly track to find her. I used to shoot the winchester cxp which was a deadly round to the vital against deer with this gun back in the day due to its extreme expasion rate We also cannot hunt general firearms with a 22-250 but can hunt a nuisance permit with them.

What do you think about the killing ability of a 222 within 100 yards? My dad can do the hand loads to get the most out of it. This year will be my son's first year deer hunting in NH and they don't care what you use as long as it is bigger than a 22LR

25-06 is the smallest round for rifle we can use here in Virginia. And our rules state larger than 22lr also. So my 22-250 during general firearms is off limits.

A 243 is THE gun great for recoil sensative pepole. I roll and shoot a 80 grain hornady GMX's out of mine. I killed 3 cow elk last fall one head shot two lung shot's. No recoverd bullets they all went through and through one was over 300 yards. I shot a BIG cow moose in the head and did recover that one it was 79.6 Grains and perfictly mushroomed.

I don't hunt. But I'm glad it was a clean kill. Nothng worse than having an animal suffer. Happy Birthday Kracker. Hope you have tons more!!!:birthday:

(And I still prefer my Marlin .35 Remington lever action with my Leupold scope).

Have you tried a .243 WSSM yet? Tad more kick than a normal .243 but it packs some serious knockdown. I have the A-Bolt varmint stalker with a bull barrel. With a Leupold Vx-L scope I can shoot 600yds easy. Overall its a fun to shoot rifle. Especially when i do not have a sore shoulder after shooting.

I was looking at them last year when I picked up my 243 Winchester featherlite. I have heard the WSSM's burn the barrle's out fast so I steared clear of them. I got all my rifles pretty much sloted for caliber/bullet weight/Distance/Knock down power:sly::deer::sly:
