I have taken one deer with a 22-250 in Oklahoma. He was about 35yds away and since it was a tack driver I put the cross hairs high on his neck, really right below his chin. Well it dropped him, a couple seconds later it was all over. I say get to know your limits with this gun, and use heaver bullets like the 55Gr. Don't just wound another deer like others we all know.
