My 223 target rifle came with nickled cases (Federal ones) and based on the dodgy old interweb I was initially a bit underwhelmed. However they are now on at least their 8 or 9th reloading and...

Yup - I'm still hurting from a lost fallow spiker shot with the 223 at 230M with a 55gn. Went down but ran off after what I think was a slightly too high shoulder shot in a fishtailing wind from...
