jamie g 17 Posted September 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 yes love centrefire my friend is coming over soon has he got free slot from work. he has a tac 20 which i look forward to seeing and shooting. all the 22 centrefires are more then good enough for foxes at the range most come into at night. ie 200 yards is nomal the max range i seam to shoot them at night. 222 will do this easy. i just like that flat shooting of 22/250 at night it helps as i can aim bang on. ive just got some leupold quick release rings for my 22/250 as i wanted something soild yet easy to remove. anyone else got them Quote Link to post
weejohn 3 Posted September 15, 2009 Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 the 22-250 really is a great calibre and always thought the exit holes were huge utill i had it rebarelled to a 243 . now with it shooting 65gr vmax i wouldnt call them exit "holes" more like opened completely up on broadside shots. strange thing was i also shot a fox facing me at about 20 yds , bullet went in the chest cavity and there was no exit just all jellied inside.
