I've been thinking about the idea of a .223 rifle as a survival weapon/tool. for the round to be useful in that purpose it would have to be able to take down small game like squirrels/small birds/rabbits without destroying the meat.
With that in mind, does anyone have any data on loading the .223 down to .22 magnum or perhaps even .22 LR levels?
Is this even possible or would the twist rate be too fast and cause problems with overstabalizing the bullet or something like that?
