Well, it's not legal in Colorado. That should tell you that not everybody thinks it's a good caliber for big game.
Myself included.
I've shot deer and elk with a 30-30...
[color:#3333FF]Federal 30-30 ammo loaded[/color][/b] up with 170 gr. Nosler Partitions produces [b]1800 ft-lbs..
[color:#3333FF]Winchester 22-250 ammo loaded[/color][/b] up with 55 gr. PSP's produces [b]1654 ft-lbs...
146 ft-lbs difference....
I guess it's good that deer and elk can't do math, otherwise you boys posting pics of dead animals would have never killed em....
