It aint the arrow you've got to worry about...it is the In'jin.

I've seen plenty of deer taken with the .223, even a few with the .204 Ruger, and they all fell like they were hit with Thor's hammer.

These people shoot MUCH better than your average internet commando wannabe.

I used to be very critical of these people, but after watching them in action, they have nothing left to prove to me (not that they ever did.) Using a small for animal caliber is not for everyone. But for those who can, get off their back.
