Default RE: For All you 223 Fans

I'm going to turn this one around....If you are not confident enough in your shooting skills that you can't put a bullet into the base of a deer's neck at 100 yards....Maybe you need to learn to shoot...I track more deer wounded because of hunters flinching from using TOO MUCH GUN that they can't keep their shots within a 3 inch circle at 100 yards....These are the guys that I make sure I put in the stands where the shots will be within 100 yards...

I've killed at least 40 deer with a 22-250, back in the 70s with the 55gr Remington varmit bullets...My 17yr old niece has killed 6 with 6 shots shooting the 60gr Nosler Partition, never lost a one, but she is a dang good shot and doesn't flinch...She has been taught how to shoot....I'd bet she could out shoot 75% of the guys on here....

A 55gr bullet, placed at the base of the neck of that buck will drop him in his tracks.
