The sufficiency of .223 is a useful proxy to expose the ridiculousness of such positions. I would like to feel that I'm contributing to the community taking an evidence-based approach to beliefs.

Thats an excuse. I don't recall seeing any of that in this discussion. And too an extent I think you are hiding behind the evidence based line. How big is your evidence pool? so far you have used other peoples photos and vids and told me you didnt do an autopsy.

If you wish to preclude me or anyone else because we havnt used the exact projectiles you have. But have a wealth of experience with enough projectiles of varying weights, cals, structure etc, then so be it.

This and your next post are the reasons I get the feeling that there is more frustration and less give from the small cal users than the bigger. It comes across as pouty. Its ben an interesting discussion, but this type of turn wrecks things.
