Thread: 223 on deer

We live and learn. Ive used hundreds and hundred of Targex 52 grn and 69 grn. Wonderful accurate killing machines for deer down.

I started cruising the internet looking for heavier bullets for my new 1:8 barrel and could only find what I already have (Ive got 2000 .224 bullets in stock - but use 600 a year at least). I like to try different bullets though. Mucking around, but I do have my main stays.

Anyway - a recess in my old brain told me that Targex make an 80 grain .224 and that would be ideal for the new barrel. And NZ made. An email, and yup Bryn does make 80 grn .224. BC .430. 200 in the making. Deer, be afraid
