in Minnesota there are plenty deer shot with a 223, in bigger cities in this state night time deer snipers kill a bunch of deer they usally start on a Sunday about 10 pm thru thurdays ,in some areas in a week these trained deer snipers take out 200 -300 deer in a week at night all shot with either 223 or a 556.a friend helped the DNR in a TB diseased area they shot 100 deer all with a 223. 223 that`s a great starter for a kid little recoil,accurate and easy to handle rifle. we use 55 gr. soft point Black Hills ammo.
