I've got a buddy in Australia. He has a bolt action in .223 for taking out large animals on his farm (kangaroos, etc).
Say he wants to shoot a rabbit or other small animal and be able to get some meat off of it, is there some .223 load that will put it down closer to a .22LR? The last small critter he shot basically exploded.
Obviously, the right answer is to buy another gun that's more appropriate, but guns are extremely expensive there and it took him years to get the paperwork done for what he has.
It does appear to be legal to reload your own ammo in Australia though I doubt he would want to go that route (farms keep you way too busy in my opinion).
