    I've been lucky enough to have shot private property for goat eradication and have probably accounted for close to 1500 goats over the years. 223 all the way is the answer.
    I went from a 6 shot Sako Vixen to a "Black Gun" to speed things up but we all know what happened there... Back to the 6 shot these days, but I tend to use the 6x45 now as its so much fun.
    Get a Howa Mini, couple of mags, good glass and enjoy yourself.

    Be safe
