Guest Mike Report post Posted October 23, 2003 Is the 22-250 enough gun to take down a coues deer at long distances? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coueshunter Report post Posted October 23, 2003 Dont take the chance with this gun. It would be a shame if you see an absolute monster at 350 yards and you dont drop him. I was going to use this same caliber and was given the advice from a well respected guide. I use a .257 wby mag...........Allen......... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
falls Report post Posted October 25, 2003 I agree with what was said above. Ive seen a few Coues taken with that caliber but I wouldn feel right with it out past 200 yds on a tough old buck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jason Report post Posted October 26, 2003 I would not recommended the .22.250 for deer size game. If you have to use it for deer hunting I would go with the 55 grain Trophy Bonded Bear Claw. I believe it is the only bullet that is manufactured for the .22-250 that is not a soft point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
