       What do you think? 22/250 for antelope?

       A few years ago I tried my 22/250 on a BIG mule deer, was NOT
       impressed. I used a Barnes 45 gr going very fast, shot very good
       just didn't knock him down very well. He didn't run off but I
       had to shoot him a "FEW" times. Long story , short, I decided
       not to do that any more.
       NOW I have the bug again, I finally got a Antelope tag and I'm
       going to try my 22/250 again...This time I'm going to use my
       load I worked up for "WOLF". It's a Nosler partition 60 gr
       spritzer,33.5 gr Varget. I've clocked at 3500 fps average with
       only a 20 fps variance. Off my sticks at 100 yards ,if I'm doing
       my job ,will basically go in the same hole. I hope it's not
       going to be a repeat , I really want the lope to only take one
       shot. Think I'll be disappointed again?

       I think the Nosler Partition bullet is the way to go for the
       .22-250 on bigger game. Put it thru the boiler room and it
       should be game over.
