[QUOTE="CogburnR, post: 706470, member: 29174"] As was previously stated ...If you don't have to deal with property lines the 243 is fine. It will kill anything BUT, you might have to go look for it. If you need to put a deer down a 270 or 7RM with the Sierra 140gHPBT will drop one way quicker than the best bullet in a 243(probably the 85g HPBT Sierra). Both will put a fist sized exit hole in the ribcage where the 243 will to about a 50 cent piece sized hole. I have seen a deer run over 300 yards with blood pumping 6 feet out the 50 cent sized hole but have not seen one make it over 20 yards with the fist sized hole(most of the time they drop right there with chunks of lung and heart spread out behind). There are some other good deer killers in the 243 family like the 260,7/08, and 308! [/QUOTE]
