    This is just funny I always thought the 223 was the perfect goat gun. And the hundreds of goats I've shot with it thought it was too. I've found neck shots to be marginal on goats regardless of cal. No caliber is gutless or gay if you can't use it within its limit then you suck probably male appendages

    Nothing wrong with a .223, I would have shot 99% of my kills with one.

    2 words Toby "progressive press" you won't out shoot your ammo with one. I can load 3-400 p/h of 223 or in my own case 6.5-223 eh
    All those with dogs waiting no longer fear death. Those with many dogs waiting even welcome it in it's time.
