[QUOTE="del2les, post: 2954306, member: 9299"] Just for comparison for those following this thread and may be curious why some of us hunt deer or hogs with 22 cals, here are just three varied 224 hunting bullets compared with a .243" 85gr Speer (far right) that works for deer especially in the old 1/12 twists. L - R: 75gr Berger, 75gr AMAX, 80gr ELD and the 85gr Speer .243 Most people would agree the .243cal is a very capable deer bullet. The other photo is a 22-250AI loaded with a 75AMAX compared to a standard 22-250 with same. The AI is pushing the 75gr at a rather mild 3,400fps in a 1/8" twist with the standard pushing the same bullet at 3,300fps in a 1/9 twist barrel. [/QUOTE]
