Fiocchi has added another specialized cartridge to its growing line of dedicated hunting ammo, with Fiocchi Hyperformance Hunt.223 Remington, designed for "lights out" performance on varmints.
If you’re looking for a compact, quick and scope-sighted (or red dot) coyote/varmint/deer rifle or personal defense rifle, the Henry Long Ranger Express, chambered in .223 Remington, is worth a hard look.
North America has a wide variety of huntable species, inhabiting many different types of terrain. While there are a few cartridges that can truly be called all-around choices, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with picking a cartridge that perfectly suits the game at hand.
