.223 for bear, deer, elk and moose.
Yeah, thats true. Guess anyone building a Poachers Special better do a rattle can camo job , with extra coats on the barrel. Or, alternatively, just use a cartridge that's legal 🤷♂️ -

I would never recommend poaching either, but I bet necked down brass that's headstamped 6mm creed would get you past anyone who did check -
