Well I am pleased to report that so far this spring I have had a fairly successfull start, as far as hunting goes. Last weekend I stumbled across a pile of rock chucks. I have so far tested some TNT's SpSX's, and V-max's in my .223. The TNT's & V-max's are about a push for destruction. The SX bullets seem to have more trouble opening on the belly draggers, but on coyotes the results are great! I also stumbled into one rockchuck just this morning, that didn't head the "Cheap" alarm from his comrads. Even with fMJ's a 1911 is nasty!!
That is all for my neck of the woods, Happy hunting and good luck!

I live over here in Idaho just out of Lewiston and though I don't shoot a 223 anymore I have been thinking of getting one. Been looking at one of those little CZ 527's. Years ago I bought a Sako heavy bbl 223. I think it weighd about 7 pounds and had a 23 inch bbl. Was a dream to shoot. Now shoot the 243's for squirrels and coyotes. Would like a gun for those closer ranges and cheaper to shoot. Nice hearing from you
