Re: .223 WSSM
Gatehouse,

I am really getting to love my M70 Coyote in .223 WSSM. More accurate then any .223 Rem., .22-250 Rem. or .220 Swift I have ever owned. Rifle works great with NO feeding problems and No signs of barrel burning after over 700 rounds. If you are in the market for a new varmint cartridge/rifle DO NOT over look the .223 WSSM. Lawdog

I just bought a Browning composite stalker 21" barrel. The gun is now my walking varminter. I shot it for the first time (with factory Win 64 gr PP) yesterday and it gave 3350 fps and about 1.25"-1.5" at 100 yds with very high Wyoming winds. Not bad considering I vever ever had the Win PP's shot for me with any caliber. Finally ordered the dies and will be working up loads with 40 gr to 55 gr BT's. We will see.

I'm sure that you guys have debated this cartridge already, but I can't find it... I'm not over here in small bores very often.

So, who has opinions on this? Has anyone used one?

I'll give it a 10 for being the silliest looking round I ever seen.

I heard they can go beyond 4800fps.. kinda fast byebye barrel, they are very very accurate as well most of the Wsm are in generally reloaded to be very fast and accurate they do the job very well better then my 22-250 even.



Enjoy. Is would make a great crow gun out to 400 yards.
