Can we all agree on this much as least: good whiskey is a good thing.
I had a whiskey and water the other night... was from a $500 bottle. I still don't think it's good... but we can agree to disagree.

FINALLY got some 50 Gr. TTSXs in....loaded them up and will get out to shoot them next week.. Cooking up a little " Bambi-be-Gone"....  ![[Linked Image]](http://i560.photobucket.com/albums/ss45/thmsbrownlee/necam.jpg) The only two Ai's that make any sense to me are the 223 and 250 Savage versions... nicely done. Yeah, 223AI seems (on paper) to add enough poop to make the cartridge genuinly more useful for my purposes. I'll probably hold my nose and do it when it's time to rebarrel my new .223.
The CENTER will hold.

As Ive posted elsewhere the .223AI extends my "comfort level" for shooting deer from 200 yds ( regular .223...) to 300 yds (AI)

No whiskey...seriously...a 300 yd shot is a slam dunko with the AI..don't want to do further cause the little boolit loses steam....
200 yds is a chip shot...
