Thread: A question for the doubters

My experience of .224 75gr and 80gr eldm @2900fps mv @50m to 300m is that they usually dont exit the head and top of neck on deer. This proves they are very frangible and will be less likely to get the job done on adverse conditions shots.
If they had some .224 high bc bonded options then i would be alot more comfortable shooting rutting stags with the .224 cartridges.
Obviously im a subscriber of shooting deer with the .223 and especially high bc heavy eldms etc but only in open country and not bush and rut conditions.
