Not much use for it. Shooting fox and turkeys saves it from very bad/bad vote. Average.

Re: Rifles | .223 Bolt Action Rifle
.223 is definitly for me very poor. Coyote is permitted but not so easy to kill with this rifle. You must aim on vital organ - body is "survival" for coyote and you start long journey to find him, on Roe Deer i have many weapons and far universal, on Fox is very good but .243 is still better, Turkey? Well i take better bow or shotgun... In short: its good for Foxes, and if you too lazy also for Turkey. Very poor.

Average.
Enjoy it very much for foxes and turkeys, but that's about it.

Re: Rifles | .223 Bolt Action Rifle
One of the weakest rifle out there. Tried it on roes and coyotes ,and even at close range it tough to get a drop on spot shot.
With turkeys, well who would want to hunt 4-5 toms all together with this rifle !? You kill one and all the others flee.
I must say that for foxes, it does the job well. Of course, any weapons are effective when vitals are hit ...
Would rate it : 1½ stars out of 5 .
Thank you

Poorly implemented in this game, nice for long range turkey and that's about it.
Thanks, ~Jeff

This is a gun witch in the real world have some serious power against many animals, but like the rest of the rifles, EW have absolutely no clue what damage these rifles acctually do. To late for me to vote good.

Re: Rifles | .223 Bolt Action Rifle
Rated Good
Rifle is nice but due to very limited range of species I only rated it as good. Now that we have .22 LR it makes this rifle even more obsolete. I also find this rifle bit loud for its power especially when compared to .243 Bolt Action Rifle which in my opinion is way superior.

Re: Rifles | .223 Bolt Action Rifle
So I use this rifle on BRR and it is amazing for goat shooting. You have to place your shots well, which I enjoy... but seeing as it's very accurate this isn't a problem:) The fox also don't stand a chance!

Re: Rifles | .223 Bolt Action Rifle
Voted good since it does the job very well on permitted species. But if I actually would start to bring it along I would need to have it being permitted also for rabbits. "Varmint". Today the .243 is superior since it's the foxes that attracts the most with this one for me.
