   Just because you see no signs on brass, some brass is hard and some is soft depending on manufacturer, doesn’t mean you are under pressure. There is no free speed. The guys who figure out the max...

   Greetings, You would loose around 100 fps or a little more from factory velocities with a 20 inch barrel. As far as making up the difference by handloading the PRC is already loaded pretty hot so I...

   Jeez I really do hope the humble .223 lives up to some of the hype I have read on this thread. Seriously though all this info got me interested in giving the .223 a go, I've never owned one. I...

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

   Yes it was. To be fair conditions were perfect and the rest was rock solid. 234376 We shot two other deer a hind at 180 yds and a stag at 270 yds. All 3 took a few steps after being hit then went...

   Finally something that is a bit more comparable to New Zealand. A fair bit of theory in this episode, of greatest value is perhaps the recoil impulse when I kill the chamois - notice how it movers....

    Get real you old buggers. You can load up a .222 to be like a .233, but you can load up a .223 to be like a .243. Stick that in your pipe :) .222 is great though. Shot many deer using 50 grain...

    With my limited experience, if I had to pick one projectile from all the .223 bullets I've used, I'd choose the 70 grain Speer. However, none of the other soft pointed bullets I've used have...

    No pics sorry. Took the kids out in holidays with the 223. 15 goats and a 130lb boar all taken with the 73g ELD M. None needed a follow up shot. My 11yr old shot the boar at 110mt and 3 goats at...

    What a great thread. Thank you for all the good information. If I had to choose just one rifle that best suited what I do, it would be a .223. I don't shoot anywhere near as many animals as...
