Part of me wants to say .22-250 or .220 swift for more energy.....no matter which .223 I used I'd use a heavy bullet, something that hopefully wouldn't explode on impact, like a 68gr+ Though the 2 I mentioned with more energy more velocity that bullet will want to explode on impact, I wonder if a .223 Rem with a heavy bullet would have more penetration than those two. I knew a guy that used .22-250 on whitetails, with 68gr I believe, said it was safe out to a 100yds or so. I'm sure it can be done, just wouldn't be my first choice or at all I don't think. I'm considering a .243 as "light" setup mainly for antelope, though maybe a muley.
