And I can reload them for 12-15 cents per round.


Are you buying the bullets? Purchased the primers and powder during the ammo bubble?

Casting your own bullets and with reasonable primer and powder prices it only was about 6 cents a round when I was doing it.

.223 is a fine cartridge. You can carry 3 of them for 1 30-30.

Oh, I know .223 is a fine cartridge. You can carry lots of rounds.

But “lethality”? Bigger is better in some things.
