I've been thinking on .223 bullets quite a bit lately. I've taken several deer with the 62 TSX. I've only shot shoulders and they've gone down right there, a few have kicked a bit but there was no tracking. I've no complaints about the bullet. There was also precious little blood left at the scene of the crime.
I put a .223AI together for my kids to use but the oldest (9) hasn't shot anything with it yet. He's pretty good on paper but I've been thinking about the blood trail if he shoots for the lungs. Line of sight after the shot on a running deer is very short where we hunt...without a blood trail it could get tough. It has made me consider a more violent bullet to the lungs....
I guess I should lung shoot one with the 62TSX for R&D to see for myself.
