[QUOTE="Dr. Tad Hussein Winslow, post: 1135318, member: 7123"] Old rules on .22 centerfire were: --55 gr or heavier (but could be ball ammo) The part about 55 or heavier "soft nosed or hollow point" is fairly new and a very good idea. Will perform far better than ball ammo. The Winchester 62 gr soft point .223 ammo is good deer hunting ammo. For hogs, I'd want something bigger - .260 Rem or bigger, in case a big one pops out. Funny part about the mag capacity rule is that your AR15 or AR10 in any other caliber besides a .22 centerfire (6.5, 6.8, .30 RAR, .243, .308, etc.) is perfectly ok to have a mag capable of holding 20 or 30 rounds, and in fact be full up. If I'm reading it right... Or for that matter, an AK in 7.62x39 can hold 30 rounds, no problem. [/QUOTE]
