The 100gr NBTs are mean little buggars and hold together very well with minimal recoil.
It’s funny that we all ask questions about bullets in various cartridges yet a lot of us in this thread, me included, kill deer with the 223 and I’ve used soft points on them and they have died also. Meh, it’s winter and I’m laid up so this is entertainment that’s better than TV.
I will give BT's a shot. I know quite a few people that like them.
I haven't killed any deer with the .223 but my kids have. It's completely smoked them. All were killed with 55gr TTSX bullets. All died VERY quickly. I carried it all last season in WI and was never presented with an opportunity on a legal deer.
