400 yards is just a number, could be longer or less...
I have been reading lately and .223 seems to be thought of as poor after 3-400 yards. Looking at some ballistic charts, .223 lists at around 370 ft/energy at the 600 yard mark (if I am remembering correct) for 75gr.
I realize there are far better options for that distance, but is the .223 really inefficient at killing at ranges past 400 yards?
