This guy didn't know the difference. 15-20 yards. 22-250 loaded with a 60 grain Partition. Through the blades and a 50 yard death run.

Have posted this several times. Never felt undergunned or worried if the cartridge was up to the task.

I know my shooting abilities and know game is just flesh and blood whether 5 pounds or 500# it all dies pretty easily when the vitals are damaged.

Crazy guys think it takes so much horsepower to kill a critter but an arrow has little energy and kills via the same method as a bullet but we need huge amounts of tissue damage for a bullet to kill.
