.223 with 45gr Barnes XLCs??
 

Has anyone hunted with a .22 caliber rifle with the Barnes x bullets? My brother and I wanted to try some and I was wondering how well they work. Has anyone used them for deer?

WHy not use a little heavier bullet?

I have never used them but if deer were the target I'd opt for the heavier 53 grain triple shock.

Another couple of better choice would be the 60 grain Nosler partition and 55 grain TBBC.

I have shot deer with mine with 55grain ballistic tips. But now since i reload i am going to try 60grain nosler partitions. I think ill take my bigger hammer instead though. But i know it works
