I've seen enough reports to suggest that the .223, even the lowly Hornet, will get a fair share of one-shot drops where the animal more or less stays in visual range of where it was standing when hit.
The real question is "What do we do when the animal doesn't call for mommy or a medic, but keeps on trucking with a fatal hit?" These are the situations where that trail can be very useful.
I had been wondering if the newer bullets with bonded cores or all copper would create enough blood channel to the exit wound that the trails would be visible even for .223's
'twould be nice...
