Naaah, I prefer to keep my eye on enemies of my rights...

I doubt anyone would point to a 22 centerfire as the ideal rifle for the hunter who isn't sure whether their bullet will hit the deer in the front half or the rear half.

In the case of one who isn't sure there is no ideal rifle. In the case of one who is sure one is better than the other.

you're a load your mother should have swallowed. Paul, that's out of line. You want we should talk about your mother that way? Congrats, you just showed yourself to be the lamest little piece of [bleep] on the 'Fire. Your mother must be so proud!

C&B, have you ever hit an animal a few inches from where you meant to hit it? Tell the truth. The answer is pertinant to this thread.

A few inches from where you meant to hit it is different than 3 feet from where you meant to hit it.

Paul, at least now if we ever meet in person, we'll have something to talk about.
PH (steelhead), your much-vaunted EXPERIENCE is what led you to state, right here on this thread, that you'd choose something other than a CF .22 for a deer hunt you cared about. And you are right.

No, I'm thinking you are wrong about who is right, but you did mention his name.

In a sharp quartering-away angle, a deer's butt is a few inches from slipping that bullet in behind the last rib. I know this <g>.
I guess none of you have ever screwed up and not hit a deer exactly where you meant to? C'mon... Tell the truth.

you're a load your mother should have swallowed. Just me speaking gang but personally this is not the kind of behavior and or kind of talk that I hang out around the Fire to read. I'd expect to see this kind of trash talk going on in other places. But on the Fire, I don't feel it's got a place. But perhaps I am wrong as I have been so b4 and will certainly be so in the future as well. Guess what I am saying here is Paul I'd appreciate it if you'd consider deleting that post as I just don't feel it's appropriate for this place. And you choose not to, well that's clearly your choice. So carry on as you wish boyz, as I'm heading to bed and this isn't my fight. Later guyz Dober And by the way, b4 anyone chooses to get after me for this I will say that there's been more than once that I've wanted to really rip into someone. For the most part I've done ok and haven't stirred the pot too much(although I have thrown more than a few verbal punches). But if I did get out of line...I would expect that someone here would call me on the carpet and splain it to me.

Jeff: Most disagree with me on this and that is their right. However with a deer I want and presented with that shot- at close range-I wouldn't try to be cute with placement. I would try to break hips, break him down, then followup as quickly as possible. At anything other than close range I would pass that presentation up. Not classic or necessarily pretty, but in the majority of times it's over just a fast.

22 cal is illegal for hunting in Canada. But in South Africa I used a CZ 223 for all my Impala. None ever complained. I would take on a Deer with it any time.

Battue, it's not something I would do again (on purpose anyway, grin)... I butchered him myself so I got to deal with the consequences and I was pretty disgusted with the mess I'd made...
I am primarily a meat hunter, so shooting him right in the meat was... regrettable.
Dunno what would have happened with a .223. Would it have smashed the hip joint and gone through the whole deer lengthwise?

It can't work better; sometimes as well, yes.
