And there is a difference of if they work on game or not. Losing an animal sucks. OP. Update on that hog.

I would not risk a wounded deer with a bullet not designed to be used on such. You must log in or register to reply here. Died swearing they'd been shot with .243s... ...that is nice to know. http://www.hornady.com/store/5.56-NATO-75-gr-BTHP-Superformance-Match/. Shot a big buck Antelope almost end to end with one (it's still flying) from a 22-06 (3700 fps @ muzzle) but at 352 lasered yards so probably like a 223 at 100-150. Just as a quick update, last night I shot a running hog with my Ar using the Swift Scirroco II bullet. I used the Hornady 75-gr under varget in my Windham VEX-SS 20 in 1:8 to try F-Class at 600 yds this summer. Now to do a ballistic test... Did you notice pressure signs? I"ve gotten some pretty good holes with it in coyotes. I should have added that I could not get the 75 gr Hornady AMAXs to work consistently (After 400 rounds changing everything around I gave up), nor the 80 gr AMAX (100 rnds), nor the 80 gr VLD (25 rnds) (throat too short, could only try jammed 10 or jumped 30 and neither grouped well) or the 77 SMKs (100 rnds). I was off topic there with my post because I'm after coyotes not deer. Use 69 data but 540 rocks. Granted, the temp the other day was 17oF and I usually shot this load at 75-90 oF in the summer. I use CCI 41's, 24.0 TAC and any brass I have, as long as sorted, trimmed and prepped properly. One shot dropped a 90lb doe in her tracks. Powered by UBB.threads™ PHP Forum Software 7.7.3. I killed the biggest deer of my life last year with a 75 gn Hornady bthp loaded with 24 gn of varget. I watched the deer go down or I would have been looking for sometime. That is the best explanation I've been given on why it takes a certain twist rate to stabilize a given bullet. I also shot a 10 point last year with round, but he was 50 yards and I shot him in the neck. I recently purchased a Remington AR 15 with the 18 inch barrel in .223. I"ve gotten some pretty good holes with it in coyotes. He went about 70-80 yards and fell over. I wouldn't even consider using a .223 on deer when there are so many better calibers out there for this purpose.
