Looks like some good HD ammo!
11" penetration, massive cavity.
Upon us all, upon us all, a little rain must fall

Good to hear they are good rounds! I have friend that gave me 2 cases of those! Good to know I got some good freebies! 
Brayden (Lazy L's Southern Comfort) you will be missed! You were more than a pet you were my reason to rise and return for many days! You were my rock!

64g SP out of a 223 is wicked deer medicine..
My son killed his first deer with one.

I cant speak for that bullet out of the 223 Remington but I have had experience with it out of the 223WSSM. In 2006 I killed what was at the time my biggest Boar ever at a distance of about 70 yards. He went about 20 yards and crashed. I didn't get a blood trail but I have come to expect that when I don't get a exit on a large pig even with larger calibers. That day I learned a lot about how deadly a little soft point bullet can be even on a really big tough animal.
I have tried much more expensive "trendy" type bullets with much worse results in the 223 and on much smaller pigs.

We have shot pigs with winchester ranger 64gr sp with much better results than other 55gr sp versions.
