I'm thinking of getting a variation for centrefire and need a .223 for fox control at my uncles farm but also want to do some target shooting at the club with it. The only problem is that the range max velocity is 2150 ft/s and obviously .223 are way over that. Some at the club download and shoot this round but I have never managed to be there to see it being shot.

My question to those far more knowledgeble than me is, can .223 be reloaded to be below the range max velocity, are there special powders for this and is it safe?
