I used to be 6mm or bigger but the 223's don't seem to have much problem. Funny after so many threads on how 243 are wounders.
Still, for bigger deer, whether real or imagined, I feel more confident pointing my 260 or 270 at them than my 6mm........unfounded but true.
I agree to an extent, but with new bullet construction and some older bullets like a Nosler PT AND an ethical shot, I don't have a problem.
For the record, I don't deer hunt with a 223, but in the event of another component shortage, I want to be able to enjoy deer hunting, hence my question.
I appreciate all the responses, there's some bright minds on the Fire.
