Lots of coyotes. We can't hunt big game here with .22's.
I probably wouldn't hunt deer with a .22 anyway. I always hunt timber, and don't need a flat shooting small bullet for big game.
I thought I was done with this thread. I ALREADY said more than once the .22-250 will kill deer, but I keep getting quoted over and over for something I said earlier in the thread.
I give up. Quote me all you want. I'm done with this thread. Little bullet shooters seem to have to prove something. Sort of like short guys.
I'm 6' 1". Keep guessing. I find it very entertaining. The OP asked for advice from people with EXPEIENCE....it's obvious you have none.
