[QUOTE="moabbound, post: 435246, member: 27664"] I have hunted with a 270 for the last several years but decided to put together a 243 ai. This years antelope hunt was it's maiden voyage for big game. I had shot plenty of coyotes with it. Anyways, my son shot a doe antelope with it at 250 yds and it dropped in her tracks and then I shot a little buck at 654 yds and it dropped. This past weekend I shot a nice Coues whitetail with it at 247 yds and dropped with one shot. I'm shooting Sierra HPBT gamekings on 45.4 grains of H4831 sc. This load is shooting at 3027 fps and shoots itty bitty groups. [/QUOTE]
