maybe likes firearms a little bit…
It’s 2/23/23.
That means it’s 223 Day! Woohoo!
What? You didn’t know? Yeah, that’s understandable.
It’s a busy life, and the 223 just goes to it everyday like the rest of us. Doing yeoman's work, day in, day out.
Taking game, from mice to mule deer. Taking trophies near to far, and taking lumps, too.
Taunted as the best varmint cartridge on a front line, and touted as the best general purpose cartridge by cheapskates of all colors of coat. It has been everything to everyone.
Soiler and savior. Best and worst.
And it is, too!
Rivaling the venerable 30/06 in the sheer number of types of loads, in weights nearly as varied. There is a load and bullet that can do what the task needs.
So ubiquitous, it will be there when you need it, even if you haven’t got it yet! Rifles are dripping from the skies, every sports store has one and a box of ammunition.
And so easy to get, everyone has a story of a misused round.
But today, let’s celebrate the 223 Remington for what it is! Not for what it isn’t.
It’s fun to shoot, a pleasure to load and easy to buy.
Thanks to its friendship with the AR, more 22 caliber centerfire rifle bullets are fired across the country than any other caliber.
And a special thanks to the best bullet to load into a 223 case, the Hornady 75 grain boat tailed hollow point!
How do you feel about the 223 Remington?
