[QUOTE="Robtattoo, post: 5323913, member: 11961"] Sorry about your negative experience, but a sample size of 1 doesn't really mean that much. It ain't the chambering, it's the bullet. 55gn soft points of any make are almost THE worst bullets in a .223. They're too heavy to be commonly classified as a varmint bullet, too lightly constructed to be meaningful on medium or large game. Any of the better quality heavier bullets would have, more than likely, netted you a dead deer. The 77gn tipped Matchkings, 75gn ELDm, 62gn TTSX & others are all spectacular deer droppers. [/QUOTE]
