Fantastic Article - A must read for all of you so called experts

“A 308 caliber will develop a needle-like wound; the same cannot be said of a 223.“.

So am I to believe that smaller bullets do more damage? I cannot believe how wrong I have been all of these years. Thank you Shawn Harrison for showing me the error of my ways.
school that boy on the effects of varying SDs (blowing up on impact vs. penetration.) why the heavy-for-caliber 70-90 gr .223s will work for culling as noted by Phillip above.

Sure they will work but to imply they will work better than something like a 308 in pretty much every situation makes my brain hurt.
 
This rejuvenated old thread was entertaining at least. I really liked some of the comments posted! Some of you have quite the sense of humor. But at the same time it was frustrating. It's hard to believe that such an article could have actually been published. The amount of errors and false information is astounding! It actually made me a bit angry while reading it, considering that some people could actually be taking the "advice" given in this article. That really makes it shameful.

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .
