I'll tell you what you can add to this. This is the first time I've seen the 223 discussed as a viable deer round without rancor. I started one of these threads in about 2002, just asking for suggestions, and it was like the whole world caved in on me. I ended up trying a couple of loadings and didn't like where I was heading and gave up-- I had a lot of .30-something deer rifles that seemed better at the time.
I'm just glad to see folks have opened up to the possibilities. This forum has come a long way.
