Good grief. Looks like a good thread went south when you got involved. Sorry guys. Not your fault, and I appreciate you asking, it's the idiots with no experience. Dickwad asked "What about shoulder shots" and then gets all puzzy hurt about some lost meat. What a [bleep] idiot he is.

Forums are funny. You have the small bullet can do anything group.
Than you have the nothing but big magnums will do group.
Then you have the rest of us in the middle who make sense.
We can't all be right, but i'd say in the middle makes more sense.
Money can't buy you happiness, but it can buy you a hunting license and that's pretty close.

I wouldn't say my 60 years of shooting and hunting is no experience. He asked for opinions, and I gave him mine. Which was the first answer. It's guys like you that turn threads to crap. I had already conceded that the 22-250 did the job ok, but didn't think it was a good idea for a new 16 year old hunter.

This went south with all your name calling and immature remarks.

We can't all be right, but i'd say in the middle makes more sense. Everyone's ways are right in their own eyes. Majority does not make right. Fact do.

What make one right over the other? Best percentage of getting a kill? Best knock down power? Best blood trail? The least meat destroyed? You pick what you want out of a bullet, and use it. That doesn't make any of us right. However, there are some calibers that will work for the majority day in and day out better than others.

Only thing better for a 16 yo than a .22-250 is a .223 AI.

I guess insults are the norm on this forum.

[quote=LBP]I got a question for you 22-250 guys.
I'm considering 1-8" twist barrel for the heavier bullets. The smith said that a CM barrel would have a life of 8,000-10,000 rounds, and that SS would add another 1,500-2,000. This is using the rifle as a deer rifle I.E. not shooting the barrel real hot.
What do you think???[/quote
Anyone have any thoughts on this???

The Schofield Kid: Yeah, well, I guess they had it coming.
Will Munny: We all got it coming, kid.

I've thinking about buying a 1-14"(stainless Hawkeye) and just laser beaming things with little bullets.
8-10K rounds on a 22-250?

Apparently guessing out your ass is the way to roll. You've never used one, apparently the folks of CO are bright enough to legislate so, apparently that isn't an insult, apparently you didn't ask about shoulders, apparently you didn't get puzzy hurt about shoulder shots, apparently you've never hunted out of state, apparently your parents gave birth to a retard.

I've used a 22-250 quite a bit. On coyotes. I hardly got hurt about the shoulder shots, but i'm a meat hunter, and try and save as much as possible. Small fast bullets are not my choice. I still hunt in timber, and don't need flat shooting bullets for deer or elk.

Scott, is this an answer to my question about 8,000-10,000 rounds from a CM sporter?
