That is what the 90gr bullet is for. Overkill? Yeah probably but I don't save the hides.

I've been looking for a new rifle as well only in 223 and while I have no first hand experience with savage I've read a ton of reviews saying how accurate they are.

A .223 bolt action?

I've thought all along I wanted a .308 but if I went with .223 I could keep my overall caliber count down.
