   Belmont don't make a good .223 load. The nearest thing they make is the old 77gr SMK load. the 77gr SMK is a bad bullet. It does not work consistently. The professional hunters I work with use...

   Don't get me wrong. A larger, heavier bullet of good construction makes a larger wound. In some instances this may result in a slightly faster death. However the .223 with good bullets appears to be...
