[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3898425, member: 15054"] 55gr V-Max for me has dropped deer and hogs and never had one go more than 20 yards. Only 2 have gone 20 yards between the ones I shot and my buddy shot with the same 55gr V-max loads. He shot 2 deer with the 55gr SP Hornady bullet and they ran off a long ways and the bullet mushroomed and retained most of it's weight. I do not like that bullet. Instant kills with the V-max. I have a a .50 cal muzzloader 243,308, 30-06 and 30-30 and have killed deer with all of them. That super accurate Savage Axis .223 gets taken often to the woods. Use what works for you but do not underestimate the killing power of the .223. [/QUOTE]
