    There is many ways to drop a animal on the spot.

    Edit

    Not trying to shit on tmk or you at all I just like pictures.

    Ideal projectile performance is like the ideal womans arse.....no two men (or women for that matter) will pick the same
    Ya ever heard " it just penciled threw" and asked what the damage was? Invariably in my experience they didnt even look they "just took the back wheels and backsteaks bro" so they shot it in the heart and it ran 30-100y and they blamed the projectile for not expanding.

    Once again not saying this is you or anyone else just something I hear time and time again.
    "Hunting and fishing" fucking over licenced firearms owners since ages ago.

    Using the 69 TMK out of a 19" 22-250 @ around 3150 fps on fallow, used to use the 77's out of an 16" AR @ around 2700ish.
    The extra velocity of the 22-250 makes a big difference, despite smaller projectile. Neck shots and is like a fist punched through. Found this to be a good combination on the fallow and decent step up from 223, but can still maintain sight picture and quickly swing onto other targets if they are there.
    Seirra make good bullets.
