[QUOTE="jrsolocam, post: 391022, member: 24511"] 436, That is some interesting reading, and interesting statistics. Notice that the 6.5 and 7mm bullets were relatively heavy for caliber, high SD FMJ's. A sign of the times...And you are right, bullet placement really is important! I'm not trying to put anyone down for their choice of caliber, but I would guess if you polled every member of this site no one would opt to take a .223 on a big game hunt. It is probably fine for culling does and fawns at less than 200 yards, but in my opinion it is considered a varmint cartridge for a reason. [/QUOTE]
