    Both when shooting a .223 at an animal and considering Mr Fosters' writings you need to take a big breath. It will ensure accuracy.

    I find it amusing that this thread is 84 pages of dead deer shot with the .223. Yet every 8-10 pages we have to have an opinion piece quoting a local expert to the contrary. The .223 is my go to now....

    Dama dama liked post by 7mm Rem Mag On thread : 223 on deer
    My first large game riffle was the 7mm rem mag and I thought it was the only calibre to use on deer until I started reading posts from champion hunters like Tahr. After the endless kills posted I...

    Dama dama liked post by gundoc On thread : 7.62x51, and what to do with it.
    7.62x51 and .308 Winchester may be used interchangeably in correctly headspaced rifles with perfect safety. While there is a minute difference in the drawing specifications of both, those differences...

    Dama dama liked post by Tentman On thread : iron sights and bad eyesight
    How much have you shot with open sights - most people "over think" them and try and get thier eye to focus on three things (which is physically impossible even when you're young). If you just go...

    Dama dama liked post by bumblefoot On thread : show us your chainsaws
    This little Shindaiwa really punches above its weight. I needed a smaller saw than my dad's old Jonserad to use when up ladders and for smaller jobs. I talked to the small engine repair guy in town...
