I'm guessing you'd do better with the air gun killing stuff than some do with their Winchesters.
How come I never find these deals? That falls right in line with your ridiculous theory that little calibers work on everything. You are one of those puzzies that can't handle a man sized rifle too. I can see where you'd do much better with an air rifle. Powered by a lot of hot air and smoke blowing.. Someone with their head in their azz has a tendency to not find good deals. Just sayin.. Killing really isn't that hard. For some. I'm was gonna say something on a 204 case.....but I know the OP is too cheap to want to spend on the dies.

222 Remington, 1-8" twist, Winchester M70 Featherweight barrel contour, in an Edge stock, barrel 20-21".
Should be under 6.5 pounds with a 2-7x Overkill. I vote for a 1 in 8" .221 Fireball. Ingwe would again be unique, having one.

Comes with a much better stock than the 223! I'll go $125 to Texas.

What Mr. Cool doesn't say is his neighborhood is full of low-income housing.
I would build a fast-twist .204 and shoot heavy bullets, to prevent you from having to watch through the scope during the instant innocent wild animals die.

Don't worry about getting rid of the bolt handle. That will come off eventually...Then you can just throw the whole thing away. Yep that happens every 100,000 or so... and I've had a bad Zeiss before too... and a leupold and ..... but as long as I keep awya from a 270 I should be ok.

7mm TCU would be cool.
ELK wrote a nice article about one a few years ago.

I'm going to build a 7TCU rifle to match my Remington XP100 silhouette pistol. Be a good use for a 223 ADL.

The 6/222 has been pulling at my coat tail lately. A 6x45 is cheaper to do, but the lil 6/222 with a 80 or 85 gr ball is still stout enough to have more energy than a standard 223.
