Mrs. Pablo’ is a killer. Waiting for the weekly installment of jealousy pics. When the three listed above and a few others speak, you should probably pay attention. Or keep overcompensating. Just goes to show what an actual joke this sub-forum is
Supposed "Experts" seriously talking about how little their shooters are..
Total disgrace...
Seriously ??? Listen to three idiots promote 224 Caliber Elk Hunting, ??? What a crock of crap How did this sub-forum become so twisted, a bunch of braggarts promoting Rat Shooters. pathetic unethical POS Really, how about you post some game killed photos ? You know, just so we know "how legitimate", you actually are ! Betting my wife's put more head of game animals in the freezer, than you have.

Sure, we can. Just not the "scary" ones.  Seriously, why don't/won't you hang some photos of you & your game ? Be nice to see. Unless you're the standard, retarded, keyboard commando, or perhaps, even a trolling sock puppet ! Been called, ante up, or STFU !

Dear Paul, I don't rise to the baiting, as you did Fish I have noticed that you haven't joined into the Ballistics convo which obviously as a Canadian is above your head do you know what .224 even is ???

Come on man Respect your "Oracle" you are only a 'Bwana Let him answer himself don't help him out he jumped into a ballistics fight with both feet into the deep end.. Don't toss him a Floatie edit: A ballistics fight that started as a damn joke, but has been turned into a CF by the supposed "experts" in this sub-forum

Seriously ??? Listen to three idiots promote 224 Caliber Elk Hunting, ??? What a crock of crap How did this sub-forum become so twisted, a bunch of braggarts promoting Rat Shooters. pathetic unethical POS Who was "promoting" it? I shared that same thought. I think one could loosely interpret Prairie_Goat's first few posts here (maybe) to promote the use of .22 CF, but I can't see how those other two's posts could be interpreted that way, at all. Maybe I am missing or misreading something, but doubt it. I was just relating my experience. Are there better options? Probably. But "better" isn't always the preferred option. It's sort of like using a traditional bow or 1990s compound compared to a fancy new compound during archery season, or open sighted lever gun chambered for an old/slow rimmed round compared to a scoped bolt gun firing high bc bullets. They all work fine when directed correctly, within their limits, and sometimes a guy just prefers to hunt with something different. One excellent reason to use a suppressed 223 - it results in minimal herd disruption compared to even a larger case capacity suppressed rifle. Pop an elk out of the herd and watch the rest of the bunch mosey up over the hill. Recover your quarry in an expeditious manner, and the survivors may be right back in there the next day. As opposed to laying into them with a 300 Loudenboomer, and sending the herd into the next township to be shot by other hunters. Of course, things may play out just fine with a "normal" setup, but a quiet rifle sure seems to help.

Of course, things may play out just fine with a "normal" setup, but a quiet rifle sure seems to help. Great post. I've never attempted to kill a big game animal with a .223 and most likely never will, but as someone interested in what works and what doesn't, it's valuable information nonetheless. I have killed elk with big slow bullets that yield much less than the magical 1500 ft-lbs at the POI. Real world experience with the .223 is the other bookend that shows the fallacy of trusting numbers in a table rather than results on the ground. Much more valuable that some hackneyed old "adage" that someone pulled out their arse back when Core Lokts were state of the art. I'm still waiting for a dissertation from the keyboard cowboy on hydrostatic shock. That would be good for a few more pages.

No that is a Toyota, we drive them, not hunt them, he hunted the Tumdra, don't you know anything ??? You wanna talk Hydrostatic shock, go for it, I personally am not a huge believer in it, and I am not at your beck and call to write a dissertation nor anything else. But please feel free if you want, I will grade it for you after, and correct the mistakes that I am sure you will interject as truths.

I thought about asking him for a detailed explanation of the mechanics behind aerodynamic jump, and as a self-proclaimed ballistics expert with superior knowledge and experience he shouldn’t have any trouble laying it out clearly, but I realized that it would be a waste of my time to engage with him, and a waste of everyone else’s time reading his response.

I would kind of look forward to it. In a car crash kind of way. I thought about asking him for a detailed explanation of the mechanics behind aerodynamic jump, and as a self-proclaimed ballistics expert with superior knowledge and experience he shouldn’t have any trouble laying it out clearly, but I realized that it would be a waste of my time to engage with him, and a waste of everyone else’s time reading his response.
