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.
