There’s plenty of debate here on .223 for larger game animals. Accurate shooting is vital. This was an example of right calibre for the target species. If there were Reds or larger pigs it’d be a different kettle of fish

Right. I have seen three guys I knew were using two 22-250 and a shotgun with bird shot against a boar on a private land one day, that was not a good view to watch. Actually, I am small game hunter (like to save deer hunting with my wife together when time comes), rabbits, hares etc. 223 is cheap to shoot and with enough energy to kill a goat. Are you from invercagill area? how are rabbits down there with new K5 virus?
