Yeah, if I'm out hunting a big buck, the .223 isn't my first choice. Kansas has a 1 buck limit, and I usually fill my buck tag early in the 2nd or 3rd week of September.
However, we do have a generous bag limit of does and a lengthy season that coincides with my favorite time to coyote hunt.
So I'm mostly talking about a target of opportunity, should a doe wander within range, while I'm out calling coyotes.
