I just bought an AR semi in 223. I was very reluctant to purchase a carbine in this caliber, especially since i already own an AR10 in 308 and a few 12G pumps, but i wanted something a bit stronger than a handgun but still less powerful than 308&12G so my wife could use it effectivelly for home defense if need be.
But the more i read about this caliber, more doubts i get. If it is too weak to be considered effective on a 120lbs deer sized game, how will it be effective on potentially a huge 300lbs human attacker?
Your thoughts on this?
