When did the .223 become a "high power" cartridge? I think these people would wet themselves if the saw some of the things Weatherby cranks out.

Have you ever seen the Weatherby add which is a take off on the Master padlock adds which show a high powered rifle bullet shooting right through the padlock yet it stil remains locked?

In the Weatherby add they go through the same scenario except when the Weatherby magnum hits the padlock it simply explodes. Nothing left at all. I guess it no longer was locked.

I'm kind of partial to a 22-250.
You load a Hornady 50 grain boattail with IMR 4350 1grain over max and you get 5000fps muzzle velocity.
The crows would literly explode.
