Deer Bullet For 223 Savage Edge

[Ted_Feasel]

There is alot wrong with a bullet that exits where we live... it is one of the reasons you can't hunt with .223, .308 etc here is cuz there are to many other things that bullet may find if it exits... there are only a small number of center fires here you can hunt with. I think .357 mag you can if barrel is 5" or less but definatly nothing like .223 is allowed for hunting here.

That's understandable having to use straight wall cartridges for hunting! But here in Ga and Wyoming where I used to live the only restrictions they had was cal no less than 6 MM ! Here in Ga they passed a law a few yrs ago and said any centerfire pistol cartridge! Well do you think a 25 acp or a 380 are big enough but this is people making laws that don't understand any ballistics or nock down power ! Before they changed the law it only allowed 44 mags to be used because of the FPE it created at 100 yds !

I think the idea here with the restrictions is to try and make sure the bullet isn't exiting and hitting the neighbor 1/4 of a mile away... I know certain small caliber is restricted for hunting deer here also... if I remember right, it's early season is bow and black powder then shotgun but in shotgun season .357, .44mag .357 mag are legal but only if barrels are less than a given length...

Wow... they have changed the law here... here's the newest

Rifles chambered in .243 and .30-caliber and that have a case length of at least 1.16 inches and that have barrels longer than 16 inches are now legal for deer hunting in Indiana. Everything else, including (but not limited to) .270 Winchester, .35, .257 Roberts and .7mm Mag, remain illegal.

I remember when they were talking about changing the laws here... never would have guessed it would pass... almost unanimously hunters here were against hunting with long distance rounds... they felt it took the sportsman ship out of it... don't get mad at me for saying that I'm just saying what most here said during the debates

Where I hunt it is rolling hills nothing big but we have a farm we hunt about 25 miles away and it's flat as a pancake and covered in corn and soybeans!

Here in Indiana it's pretty much just flat you get South there's some hills but nothing that can stop anything high-powered or that you would want to count on

I just read that they change the laws here like one or two years ago I never thought I would see the day where anything high-powered could be used here

I wonder if it had anything to do with overpopulation because we were having a overpopulation problem here I think

A lot of the recent law changes here in the midwest have more to do with agricultural organizations and insurance companies lobbying for larger reductions in the deer herd than anything else. It also seems there's been a significant reduction in the number of hunters participating in the firearms season(s) simply due to the piss-poor weather we've had the last several years and because the season is so short. More and more hunters have switched to bow hunting to take advantage of the much longer season and to be able to hunt the rut.
