coles Posted February 20, 2007 Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 Re: 22-250 it would be closer to the .243. it all depends on the grain of the bullet you use too. the heavier the bullet is the harder it will kick. which with a 60gr bullet still kicks very little. the .243 has a heavier bullet yet so its goin to kick harder. i dont really know what to compare it too. its more than a .223 but less than a .243. hows that? if you can shoot a 30-06 you can definatly shoot a 22-250.

Jeramie Posted February 20, 2007 Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 Re: 22-250 You're way closer to the .243. Very little recoil. Most of the 30-06 rounds are 150grn plus and the cartridge has more energy. The .22-250 will have far less recoil. Keep in mind a .223 has 50grn bullets. The .243 deer rounds are typically around 100grn. However, powder is still a factor in this equation. Regardless, its not enough gun to leave you black and blue. Btw, I know they are legal to hunt deer with (here) but steer clear. I think they are a bit small for whitetail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryan1990 Posted February 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 Re: 22-250 yeah i think ill sick with the ought six for deer. one of my buddies in tecumseh killed a nice 9 point this year with his 250 though. i think it was a neck shot. but i dont think he went to far.

coles Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 Re: 22-250 the amount of recoil also depends on the weight of the rifle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtnhunt Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 Re: 22-250 Have shot a model 700 in 22-250, and the recoil was considerably lighter than a .243. Would have to agree with Jeramie that the 22-250 should be used for a varmint round and not on whitetails. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun_300 Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 Re: 22-250 I have a Remington 700 in .22-250, it hardly kicks at all! I bet the .410 kicks harder than it. Mind you it also has the varmint barrel on it, which cuts down on the recoil quite a bit. Even without it though, it'd kick much less than a .243.

tped Posted March 22, 2007 Report Share Posted March 22, 2007 Re: 22-250 Don't know if they have any around you but I just picked up tonight a Remington 700SPS Varmint in 22-250 as a package with Weaver bases & rings and a Remington branded 4x12 scope for $479 plus a $30 rebate from Remington. This was at our local Dicks Sporting Goods. Cabelas was selling the gun only for $499. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
