[QUOTE="theodore, post: 391207, member: 15578"] A 223 is capable of killing humpback whale. With help from technology, bullet selection is better than ever. Along with shot placement that is needed for each different specie. Larger caliber simply have less margin of error if shots are good placement. Key is the right bullet at the recommended impact velocity with good shot placement. quick fact- Hogs have a thick armor plate and has stopped 30-06 from penetrating in less than 100yd. Resulting in a wounded hog that most likely survived because of bad shot placement or could've been prevented with a different bullet. I would be amazed if anyone can kill a coyote with a boat tail non-expanding .223 bullet while not hitting any nervous system (brain/spine). Good luck! [/QUOTE]
