Thread: howa 223 at ranges

I have one of those rifles, I've shot fallow deer out to 230 meters. Just aimed in the crease where I normally would. I've found the hornady v max rounds are excellent at that range but not good at close range as they disintegrate if they hit bone.

awesome thank you that's good to know, I'm currently using pmc ammo but also have some of the hunting and fishing brand ammo too have used only on targets at this stage but might have to look into that stuff at a later date thank you!
