   I'd always been tickled by the idea of hunting deer with a .223 when I first bumped into a fella who did and not long after I bought one and never looked back. Of all the calibres I've owned and...

   Shot a lot of Reds with those 52 Gr Sierra Match Grade projectiles. Not quite what they were designed for, but pretty sure they were hollow point. They were bloody accurate,I remember that much

   I used those a lot when I was meat hunting with a .222. Yes, hollow point. They had a good solid bum to them so that held together and penetrated even if the front broke off.

   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...

    Yes the neck shot is a classic for the 222 /223. I remember back when culling in the Rangitoto range we wanted some venison for Xmas. We went off for a hunt in our chosen areas. I was hunting a...

    Depends on how they present themselves, but generally more towards the shoulder than the head. Head shots are pretty risky.

    Again, in my youth EVERY deer I saw had to be got. Back then they were worth$$, and the chest shot ones would go in the freezer for feeding the family. Nowadays I am secure enough to let them go,...
