[QUOTE="Callison76, post: 1799820, member: 13334"] I will say 90% of the deer I have taken in Oklahoma have been with a .223. I have never lost a deer, in fact I have never had a deer run more than 10 yards after hitting them with a 68gr BTHP from Black Hills (I know on the box it says not for medium or large game). Most of the deer I have shot just buckled, and when dressing them everything north of the diaphragm has been jelly (sorry, not trying to be to graphic). A buddy of mine in McAlester, every year, his daughter drops very nice deer with a .223. I would stay away from the H&R or NEF rifles due to accuracy but there are some nice rifles available even on a budget. [/QUOTE]
