    .22mag works just fine n dandy...just like anything else including a .50BMG you still have to place your shots. range under 100 yards the magnum works fine.

    Only for head and necks for me.

    I shot one bang through the shoulder. Hit the heart. Mushroomed good and recovered from the other side of the opposing shoulder. Still ran a good way before I popped into it a few more pills.

    True. Maybe I'm just used to the 223 feeling like a proper sized round. Even then they used to take a bit to fall over.
