To what distance do y'all limit your shots on deer when using a .22 CF? I'm particularly interested in 64 grain NSB.

I like the .223 to 200ish yards and the .22-250 to 300ish yards.

The Schofield Kid: Yeah, well, I guess they had it coming.

Will Munny: We all got it coming, kid.

Not saying its great for elk but, I believe some of the Montana fellows here at the fire have taken elk with it.
