I should have known better than to open a thread that begins with "At Ingwe's urging".....

I wonder out of all the pigs shot at the 24Hour Hog Hunt this spring how many were killed with a .223. I killed 2 with mine. I think Ingwe killed 2 or 3.
I've always been different with one foot over the line.....

Heck, the 243 is too small for deer. A 270 is bare minimum and that's for those that can't recoil of real cartridges.
I prefer classic.

If they'd make a .20 cal 40 train TTSX..... I've had that same thought. But, you gotta be careful. A LA hunter killed a really nice buck with a .204, got himself into a heap of trouble with Wildlife and Fisheries; .22 cal is the min legal allowed, .204 is illegal. But, only if you get caught...  He didn't know the law, admitted to the .204. I don't think game wardens could look at a WT carcass and tell a .204 hole from a .224 hole... DF

For deer? That's silly... course it's not enough for deer. Nothing bigger than a tiger with 22 centerfires. ![[Linked Image]](http://i200.photobucket.com/albums/aa105/GeneBB/22HP/tiger61.jpg) Thats a small tiger...and the Savage Hi=power is actually a .227. No fair. That thing is a bag of bones. A mini mag solid behind the ear would of fixed his wagon.

What's really funny is reading posts over on long range hunting. A .243 for deer is, gasp, so puny...

I may use a 223 this year. It's been a few years since I deer hunted with one, but I think it's about time to do it again.
I enjoy handguns and I really like shotguns,...but I love rifles!

Darrick, that Benchmark Barrel you sold me with the 1 in 8 twist is on the McFlame in .223AI....very possibly my favorite rifle now.... ![[Linked Image]](http://i560.photobucket.com/albums/ss45/thmsbrownlee/IMG_1982_zps06diqzbl.jpg) Oh...and I believe it was you that gave me the idea for that stock too.... You're a bad influence! I think I'll put you on ignore!

Charles Ive killed all of my pigs with the .223AI except one in Tenn. when 7x57 Steve loaned me an exquisite Ruger#1-S in .38-55 Kinda hard to turn that down, so I went "Big-Bore" on him!

Tom,
Some guy in Tennessee talked me out of my McFlame. I wish I had that one back! I'm still holding on to a Benchmark mountain rifle contour blank just in case...
If photobucket was working for me, I'd post a pic of that beauty!

If photobucket was working for me, I'd post a pic of that beauty! Its working for me and I kept your pic for inspiration! ![[Linked Image]](http://i560.photobucket.com/albums/ss45/thmsbrownlee/24HRC/McSwirly_zps1a897410.jpg) Just because that was such a beautiful gesture on my part I thought you might want to relinquish your hold on the Mtn. Contour Barrel.....
