Reloading question for deer hunting.

240 grain, hard cast, w/gas check - 44mag

Last year I killed on with a 150 soft flat tip intended for a lever action 30-30 but I loaded them in a 30-06 and shot it from my M1 Garand. First one I've killed with that combo. One shot.

I am curious about your experiencee with the 22-250 55 Gr. Have you shot a deer with that and where was the shot placement and result?

"22-250: 55 grain Partitions & Ballistic Tips"

I have used the 60 grain Partition in the .223 with good results ...
As far as I know they do not make a Partition in 55 grain .22 caliber model ...
But the 60 grain Partition does work really well ... at times they can be hard to find ... with most bullet supplies getting back normal ... hopefully it will be easier...

The twist of your barrel could come into play ... but several folks I know have shot the 60 grain Partition in their .22-250...
