[QUOTE="scottyd2506, post: 668348, member: 19778"] Sound Advice, you I can tell have hunted many times, yes, I've known people to shoot them and they run.. I have not killed enough to know, the 300 win mag and 25-05 I use are deadly, but my friends friend shot one with a 25-06 using 75 V-maxes and it kept running, he is a great bench shooter, but live animals he misses a lot or bad shots. and the 25-06 is a huge varmint round, I seen Coyotes almost cut in half by this round. but good shiot placement is important. I think my 223 with the 70 Berger VLD at 2968 fps (prob 2900 in colder weather) will be fine, and buck the wind good. it is a New England firearms Handi Rifle, and shoots 3/4 to 1 inch groups untill the junk Simmonds scope went bad... I am on a quest to make a low $$ rifle shoot 1 inch at 100 and avg. going to get a Nikon 6-18x40 mil dot soon for it. I already have my 25-06 that last week shot one group and it was 1/2 inch at 200 yards 3 shots. a good placed 223 in a 1 inch group gun ii just as good under 350 yards Can't wait to get it shooting (after I get new scope next week).
