.223AI on Whitetail?

More so than with larger/heavier rounds, the bullet selection is more critical in my opinion, especially with a heart/lung shot where you want an exit would in case they run a few yards. For example I don't think you want to put a 40gr hollow point into the heart and lung area. It will likely kill them but might be almost impossible to track if they don't drop in their tracks.

Sound advice

TTT anyone else have any input?

My wife has had great success taking deer with 223 win. And even took a 200 lb hog last weekend. Shot in the ear. Shooting Hornady 55 gr. Soft points.

Kill them all the time with a 222. Shoot all doe's in the head.

So I am assuming that as long as I stay with the 60-80gr loads I should be fine. Anyone have any other input? Also does anyone have any experience using 75gr Amax for hunting?
