[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1658189, member: 87243"] I have used fmj's a couple times before in a .223, there are places where I shoot p dogs where it is well over 10 miles to the next anything. But, I prefer not to use them. Even if everything is 100% safe as far as the bullet continuing on until it runs out of steam, I saw inconsistent results. Some p dogs would go flying after impact, and others acted like they were hit with a .22 rim fire and ran off. Also, for the accuracy you need to hit p dogs at extended ranges, it's better to get a decent varmint bullet rather than the super cheap bulk pack fmj's anyway, you usually won't see as good of accuracy with fmj's in the bulk sized bag as you would from a decent varmint bullet. Just my thoughts. V-max bullets are cheap, check out shooters pro shop for super cheap nosler seconds, blems or overrun as well. [/QUOTE]
