I have zero doubts about your setup. I've slowly built a rem 700 300wm over the years and I love that rifle. Killed many animals with it using the 215 Berger and I just know my rifle. That said, I'd love to add a .223 to the mix now that i've read this. Like many, I grew up being taught bigger is better even though I know better. I still love the 30 cals, magnums, etc. Calibers, bullets, reloading and all that is very fascinating to learn and will be a lifelong endeavor. I appreciate this thread and the things it's made me think about. Good stuff!Lotta good entertainment in this thread for sure!
I promise you’ll be thrilled with you he value a .223 brings to your riflemanship journey. You’ll shoot it exponentially more than any other centerfire rifle you own. Plus, with correct bullet selection, there is no compromise in terminal performance.
