Here in Florida poachers swear by the 22LR ... but that don't make it right.
The 22-250 is sending a bullet at the target WAY too fast to get good penetration, and, even if it did, the energy level is simply not up to the job of guaranteeing a humane kill - even for deer.
Unless you can load a FMJ bullet in a 22-250, and place the shot just below the ear, get another gun. Being a Sportsman entails more than simply being a good shot. Things can, and do, go wrong.
