    The 223 is seriously useful and even more so when suppressed

    The 60g nbt at 3100 great on rabbits a long way out there and fun on targets to 850 yrds

    The solid copper boat tail ensures penetration on deer and you often find the projectile under the far side skin or exited.

    The 55/65g gameking are hammers on deer as well. Often the most fun afternoons are to be had with a Mercator, a few rounds in your pocket and a 223 for company.

    Both of these are 1 in 8 twist
