Ruger American G2 or Howa Mini for 223?

[Prairie Sasquatch]

I believe the Mini's have a standard .223 rem length so I'd try some 73gr ELDM's or 77gr TMK's. If you want to shoot the heavies.

I might give them a try but I have a 22-250 AI that's shooting the 77 grainers real well. I like the punch and velocity of the 60 vmax's for varmints. Enough to kill coyotes, badgers and raccoons but enough explosiveness for gophers and ground squirrels. Fun little rifles for sure. Would like to get a suppressor for it.

Another option would be the 53gr VMAX's. It has a better bc than the 60gr VMAX's. I've dumped rats, chucks, badgers and coyotes with that bullet.
