I also do NOT recommend the 22-250 for deer or boar. It shines as a great varmint round, but is not geared for larger game. You don't always have that great option of shooting them in the head or neck, and one little move means a wounded animal that ain't going to leave much of a blood trail and will travel miles and days. Even to shoot them thru the boiler room with a .22 pill does not leave much of a hole. Course, there's a lot of difference between what one calls a pig -- the bigger they get the tougher they get. Also a big dif between ferals and the European or Russian wild boar.

No, there's a better purpose for the hot .22 cf's, and in my opinion it is not for game animals, Waidmannsheil, Dom.
