Default RE: For All you 223 Fans

Ridgerunner.....I've "never" shot a deer with a .223. I ask again "WHY" would I want to? I'm retired military, I know a few things about the round and the results from the round. Nuff said. Why take the chance of that round bouncing around the gut, I have heard of that exact result as many times as a "dropped dead" in his tracks. My point is, I wouldn't take a chance of tainted meat, bullet shards embedded in my steaks, or just plain not finding a blood trail. Just the way "I" roll. I was raised to make a quick, clean, efficient kill at all times, not roll the dice. I know that many have made the perfect shot, and I commend them, as could I. But that weapon is"well" designed for other things. Just my opinion.
