Took 3 deer with my AR used Winchester 223 XP is absolutely outstanding 16" barrel 1/9 twist 64 grn bullet Smoked every one of them And one was the biggest buck I ever killed in my life with a gun
I'm sorry I meant to say 18 in barrel
I'm gonna deer hunt with my 20" AR this next fall, I've never hunted with an AR so it's nice to have videos out there to help me choose a good bullet for maximum damage.
Did you ever make it out with the 20 inch? I'm late to this comment but wanted to see if you did. I've been usin a 20 inch ar for about 3 years, using Winchester silvertip 64gr ammo and it's been awesome. I've killed beavers, coyotes and whitetail with mine, all have been one shot stops and drops besides one doe that made it about 40 yards before expiring.
Excellent test. I don’t hunt with .223 but my friend’s grandson is small and a .243 doesn’t fit him so I’m offering him my .223 for his first hunt. Looking for good deer bullets and your video helps. Thanks for the great content! 👍
No way! I bought some of this ammo like 5 months ago and couldn’t find any tests on it. Now I just decide to loom it up again for some odd reason since I was checking my ammo storage and saw them and here you are! Thank you so much, man!
Edit: also those are some VERY similar performances, and I got the Hornady for $25 a box and the Winchester for $35 a box.
Thanks. Appreciate the demonstration
You mixed the winchester and hornady results up sir. The 2nd shot (winchester) had no powder burn in the wound cavity.
Good video. I hand load my .223. Would be interested in seeing how they compare. Thanks for sharing that test. Looks like either one will work if it’s a good shot.
I've used Hornady 55gr V-max, 55gr Speer Gold Dots, Fiocchi 55gr soft points, and Federal Fusion 60gr soft point. They all work just fine for taking deer.
I'm planning to take mine this year. How many deer have you taken? Was it a quick death?
My gf nailed one right in the bread plate with a 30 06 and the buck was so amped up it managed to run quite a ways
exactly
@@Arthurian. i’ve taken 5 and a hog
@@mkd7961 how was that hog? I've watched the videos of some so amped up its like they're not phased.
@@Arthurian. he ran a little farther wasn’t a pass thru so had to use my injun skills tracking him lol bullet hit the “plate” opposite side stopping it but same scenario lungs like jelly and he was only twenty yds from tree stand
A heat gun will remove the wrinkles for clear vision. 👍
When I was a young man, I would buy big fat books from my local thrift store and shoot through 1000 pages with my 223.👍
hydrostatic shock broke the timber.
Imagine that level of force inside the ribcage.
both will do well for self-defense.
I’m willing to bet using these two rounds from a 20-22” barrel would give better results as the velocities would be higher and especially with the 22” barrel
My standard for the decent size deer we have here in upstate NY; 20" 1:8 twist barrel with the 64gr Deer Season XP rounds. They work great. Typically punch out a couple ribs and turn the near-side lung to mush. Last one of the season was 30 minutes before the end, field dressed 140lb doe at 125yds.
What kind of 223 are you shooting
I expected more penetration. Learned something new. Thank you!
If you secure the gel block to the table with a ratchet strap or something,,, the bullet will expand and pass all the way through the gel... when the gel block flies in the air and moves backward it absorbs all the energy..
Use the same aimpoints as you would bowhunting and you will have a dead deer, every time.
62 grain gold dots are another option.
Exelellnt video man. I would likw to see thwm shot at 100yrds too. Thanks man
What rate of twist is the barrel in your Ruger American?
1:8
Thank for doing the test. I think you are mixed up in reviewing the 2nd test. You are basically measuring the Hornady again after the 2nd shot.
i’ve used .223 to kill several deer, 55 gr sp it turns everything inside to jelly
That sounds like ruined meat. How much meat were you able to salvage?
@@Arthurian. every thing didn’t ruin any. i don’t shoot them in shoulder 3 in back-2 in high break then down every time
@@mkd7961 you saod turns everything to jelly. In my experiences, butchering deer jelly = unsaveable
@@Arthurian. turns vitals to jelly not meat
@@mkd7961 got ya.
Never had any run on ya? I'm just nervous. I've previously only used 30 Cal variety
Smaller than it appeared in the photo
Never heard of you but I'm going to subscribe so don't let me down!!!
12 yds? Why not test the rounds at REALISTIC ranges?
I have shot many deer for depredation reasons. Have used a few calibers and types of bullets including both of these. IF you are an experienced deer killer and good shooter and only shoot under ideal circumstances, these will kill deer. There are far better calibers out there for deer. I will probably use my .223 for them again but not for real hunting in the woods just the depredation thing where it looks like a park. Nor will I ever use it for bigger , amped up bucks during the rut. Bigger calibers than these are better.
Upon what animals do whitetails predate?
@Luke B he means crop damage control basically. Some states give you permits to kill out of season if they are destroying crops.
It would be great to seethe bullies
You get enough replays
I think you'll be happier with the Nosler Partition. Your penetration will be significantly deeper but the intial upset will still be very good
Shot few deers with 223 FMJ, even a big buck the bullet went through clean, but in Texas there not as big .. Kansas or Oklahoma wouldn't use 223 unless it's a small deer ..
Why would you ever use fmj though? The entire purpose of ball is to wound and not kill. Clean through is considered a dangerous and careless hunter
@@Arthurian. it's what I could afford at the time .
@@angelosuke1139 poor excuse.
Soft points are hardly more expensive. That pass through couldve killed another hunter.
@@Arthurian. oh that place I hunt was in a big ranch it's family owned and we just hunt there nobody else ..
@@Arthurian. hero
