Why use old school outdated equipment when you have scopes and .458 H&H magnums that will kill a deer faster than napalm.
Last I checked the Tn legislature passed a new law that said hunting with a .223 was illegal cuz that round is a man killer not a deer killer.
Same reason some use a recurve bow rather than a compound bow...because they want to!  As for a 223 caliber being illegal I have not heard where that had been changed . Last I heard any centerfire caliber was made legal a couple years or so back but could be wrong. As for me go for it. There are some states that do not allow scopes on certain weapons so give it a shot!
That is right MRUTVOL all center fire calibers were made legal a couple of years ago.
Go for it. It will do the job.
