Poll, allow .223” diam. bullets for big game?
Now that we’ve had some digest time...reduce the min diam. from .243 to .223?

Difference in diameter between current minimum is 8.2% fyi.

Definitely not, nothing smaller than .224".:)

Yes. Nothing wrong with 223 on big game
|
Again with this!!!!!!!
|
Not enough energy for me for big game but excellent coyote round
|
Would be nice to take out some semi auto 223 hunting. Like the t97

Another brilliant thread started by who else
Why don’t we just use solids too That way we make sure we maximize the sd of our ammo And every shot would be a pass through |

A thread about something other than 6.5 masterrace or ttsx bullets started by stinky is a pretty refreshing change. If you can kill game with a recurve and that’s ok why do people get so upset about 223?

Maybe one of the AO Tech folks on the forum could do a controlled test to show us if the comparisons between cartrage/ caliber is the same or different.
A better test then this one. https://youtu.be/JMngkxECAEc |

Didn’t start this thread with stir the pot intentions. Started it off to see how the vote would go, that’s it. We don’t need to reply. Just wondered what the collective here was. We gonna be ok? Just sold a 243 and a 204 and a 270wsm in the past two months. There grendels cover off what the first two were doing. The wsm just more than I’ll ever need. The 300wm has some sentimental value. The gem is my .270 win, we’re good to 600, and now some grendels too for whatever. |
I started a thread about ttsx bullets? Is it a full moon tonight or something?

Whether I agree or not doesn’t matter, also doesn’t matter to me if allowed, have other choices in the light hitter class that are allowed and I have them so all good. I’ll support the inclusion if it happens some day though. |

How small you want to go? How far you want to shoot them at? Why don't you just run that poll first? |
Someone else started the .223 discussions and we don’t always see eye to eye. Despite that the only thing I thought was missing from all that was a simple poll. I didn’t start this for anything other than to complete that chapter. I think .223 bullet choices now could be used responsibly and effectively. But really, I have 3 Grendel projects on go so it doesn’t matter one bit to me if we ever have the option to .223 bullets. Those 90’s sure do look good though. ✌️

His sig line says he's killed more big deer with a bow than you've seen! Look that over Kurt. |

It’s just a poll, good lord

He has spent a lot of time posting the math behind ballistics, and I'm sure anyone who understood what he typed was able to learn something. I know that there is a belief out there that bigger is better when it comes to hunting rifles, but I'm not one of them. I believe accuracy and bullet construction Trump caliber every time (see what I did there? I guess these are Trump facts, lol). I'm thankful for Stinky's posts, it's really helped bide my time with a broken leg..... bahahaha! |
