[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 837327, member: 10178"] It all depends on the size of the deer and the yardage expected to shoot one at. For deer in the 150 lb average on the hoof size the 85 gr Sierra BTHP works really well out to 300 or so yards. If I had to use just one bullet out of all that I have used over the years it would be the 100 gr Sierra. It is very accurate and kills really well form point blank out to 300 or so yards. You can hit deer further away but the 243 Win is loosing a lot of steam past 300 yards. As with any caliber you have to put the bullet where it is supposed to go. None of those Texas heart shots or weird raking shots especially on large body deer. [/QUOTE]
