   I think you miss the point. 3 or 4 hunters out of all those posting. Dont get me wrong, the 223 is a fantastic cartridge! Ive used one for most of the last 30 years. I like it. But if Im doing a...

   Hunter_Nick. It is obvious that you consider the 223rem to be more that adequate on deer (as do I, although not always my first choice). Hypothetically speaking, is there a point (an animal) at...

   I'm not decrying the 224s, heck I've just built a 22CM for nightshooting and I have absolutely no doubts about its future performance on grass thieves (big and small). For my sins I'm a fencer,...

    I would say if you had a large stag at 50m in front of you, your chance or margin of error increases with a larger projectile. Not saying the smaller one wont work but there is a bigger chance it...

    I love my .223 especially with the 75gr eldms, my son shot his first deer with it. However there is very very little margin for error. Hit a small piece of anything before the animal, animal moves...
