   We should stop calling them target bullets. It puts people off. Heavy for callibre, high sectional density, non-bonded frangible projectiles launched sub 2900 ft/sec is a mouthful. Kill like...

   Im probably starting to repeat myself now... Modern hand-loading and decent projectiles has made a big difference to the 222/223, and with the .223 faster twists and heavier bullets too. When...

    Had my .222 out in the bush today. Bumped into a red stag at fairly close range, but the right shot wasn’t on offer so off he walked. Maybe next time....

    Thanks to everyone for their input! The data and experiences presented, make a fairly convincing point that the .222/.223 has a valid place in this game. Hopefully any punters new to the sport,...

    I hunt with my 223 often by choice and shoot a lot of deer with it. Love the quietness of it and the added challenge. I tend not to muck around and just shoulder/ chest shoot deer with it. Includes...
