Casey seems to of experienced them being tough, that's not been my experience at all? A 22/250 with a 55 Horn is gonna stack them up quite fine for most sane ranges.

Just speaking about my experience is all.

I've seen 'em smoked in their tracks with 223s and plain old 55 grain soft points and seen 'em run off from 300 win mags. Shot placement was the culprit with every tough one I've seen...

I've even shot a couple with 180NBTs from a 300 win mag. 60 maybe 80 yards and 322, both high shoulder broadside shots. Both hit the ground instantly at the shot. Like all 4 legs straight out nose in the dirt chipped teeth hit the ground hard. LOL.
