Either will work with equal shot placement but the 250 will most likely put more blood on the ground shluld you need to track.


That's my biggest concern. Small holes, less blood?

This is my experience. Not much tracking to be done though. Dropped within 5 yards.

Treemutt thats my experience.

Benchman thats the norm, I am just thinking of an off chance that fringes of the vitals are caught.

In the 223 I prefer the 55 grain Sierra Gameking, have never used a Partition out of the 223 but have used them from a 22-250.

If deer travel it isn't far and they bleed pretty good for such a small caliber bullet, not much difference between that 22-250 and a .243/6mm.
