[QUOTE="Kevin, post: 289908, member: 603"] In my opinion, the .243 is fine for deer at 400-500 yards or even a little further and recoil is pretty low especially in a typically heavier long range setup. A 6x47 lapua would be real nice or the stock .243 win. Unless you want to use a brake to tame the recoil on the larger cals. Not to start anything here about minimum requirements to kill stuff but you might be surprised how well your 22-250 can work on deer. I have seen and have taken part in numerous one shot and drop deer kills with 22-250 and 220 swift AI's. [/QUOTE]
