[QUOTE="Aoudad shooter1975, post: 2349257, member: 102560"] While I agree a 243 can be deadly…the best…not what I’ve found…I have to agree what I have liked 1.257 weatherby mag with 90-115 grain bullets—I have not had a mule deer or whitetail one survive 2. 25-06 the same just a bit less fuss. 3. 6.5-284 win with 120–140 ish grain bullets—again just about perfect. Lots of good calibers just these are a sweet spot for me for where I hunt mostly. Where you’re at you might need less reach—but I guarantee—one of these would not be a bad place to start. [/QUOTE]
