Re: .22-250 for deer?
unless you're a great shot and have handloads made with 53 gr. X bullets or 60 gr. Nosler Partitions, I'd avoid it.
Very risky with a small caliber. Im not saying it wont work, but Im just saying there is dozens of cartridges better suited for deer sized game.
I'd go get that 243 and forget about the '250 for deer...better yet, get a 257 Roberts or 260 Rem at least.
my .02
