    Are 224 Bullets Too small for Deer Sized Game?

    I’ve used 75gr hornady tap factory ammo, 75 gr gold dots factory ammo, and I believe a makers 62 gr bullet with great success on South Georgia whitetail deer, coyotes, and several hogs. I pick my shots and keep my shots within 200 yards. Each of the above 223 bullets have performed well and I’ve...

    22-250 for deer?

    I’ve used bolt action 223’s and 22-250’s for several years now. I hunt middle Georgia so the average buck is 145lbs and the average doe is 115lbs.

    Favorite hog gun

    I’ve used my 6.8 spc’s, 450 BM, and 44 mag. I’ve used several 223’s / 556’s. All have worked pretty good. The 6.8 spc is the only one I’ve used at night with NV set up on it. All shots were within 100 yards. The 44 mag was 45 yards out.
