    Reloading 222

    Hi all,

    Have finally got one of my bucket list rifles, a Vixen in .222. What projectiles/loads are people using on deer, and where are you shooting them? E.g. I was thinking of giving the 53gr TSX a go, but unsure whether it'll open up on chest shots, or if it'll put a deer down reliably with shoulder shots. Otherwise I'll just work up an accurate load with a cup 'n core bullet and stick to head/neck shots.
