I'd Much rather punch a lung shot with a .223 with a nosler partition at 300 yards than a shoulder shot with a 300 mag with a vmax type bullet!!
Bullet construction is Key! Deer ain't varmints. Sucks when " dad" buys bullets designed for prairiedogs for the kids to hunt deer with then get ****ed because they loose a deer.
Bottom line is, there is plenty enuff energy to very humanely kill a deer at 300 yards with a a 223 but to many folks buy cheap varmint bullets.
