Sounds like you'd like to use your AR. How about a 6x45?

They don't now, why would that be necessary if the law was changed from 243 to 223 being the minimum legal caliber? I'd be fine with that change, but only for deer. It's a great caliber for kids, whether it's a 223 Remington, 22/250, 224 Weatherby, or 223 WSSM.
I have a 223 WSSM that would be perfect for my kids to hunt deer with. I've used it in Wyoming on both deer and antelope. A 65 grain bullet at 3,400 feet per second works very well.

A 165 grain .223 bullet?
jackelope:
Lots of currently legal deer cartridges can be shot from an AR15 platform rifle. I disagree with the need for any change to the current law. It's just asking for more wounded and not recovered animals.

I guess I'm happy with the rule as it stands.

I already have two 243 ,i guess I just like the smaller caliber,what I want is 223 case necked up to take a 243 bullet,but they haven't came out with it that I know it,then u have best of both worlds ,i don't think I'm the only one that would use 223 ,if u like it the way it is I respect , and I will follow the regs.

It's a 6x45mm and while it's not a factory cartridge, has been a wildcat for years.
