If you have the digipics on your PC, just click the additional options below the post window, browse to the pic and select it, there are restrictions on size and type. If you can't do that, hit my email button  and send em to me, I'll post em for ya.  ;)

To me this is a very good example of what a NEF product can do. MOA is okay but look at what you have gotten it to do. You have taken 6 deer with it proves that NEF products work very good in the field.
     Thanks for the good report and welcome to GBO.        Jack

Good Job!!! Making me want a 250 for my NEF!!!

I watched my dad shoot many deer for over 20 years with a 22-250 and despite what the majority think it is quite a deer kill'n round.. My dad always took neck shots too but one time we each took a pair of does and he gave her a 55 gr Hornady SP right in the vitals while I did the same with a 270 on one standing right next to her.... I guessed it as a 100 yard shot. His folded up nicer than mine and as hard as it is to believe the 55 gr bullet exited with twice the size of hole as my 270... I did a lot of experimenting after that in the early 90s and once nozzler came out with the 60 Finlay I finally realized that the 55 gr SP was as good as it gets for NE white tails for a lot less $$
