About LinkBacks350 meters using a 64gr sierra game changer, the yearling stopped and looked back over his shoulder as if to say I'm at a safe distance but what mum forgot to teach him was 350 meters is not far enough when it comes to the mighty 223.
It was my first time using the 64gr game changer on deer, I ranged it then dialed 300 on the scope and aimed just above center on the front shoulder and it went straight down.
When I walked over I was almost expecting to see it had got up and run somewhere but no it was laying exactly where I hit it.
Bloody stoked

The Sierra website no longer lists any .224 gamechanger projectiles so I assume they are no longer produced. Don't waste them Originally Posted by 7mmsaum
