[QUOTE="nralifer, post: 2622611, member: 94556"] The 243Win is most definitely a good Deer cartridge. With tough copper bullets it is deadly. Me and a friend have been hunting Antelope and experimenting with light experimental 70 gr BD2S. No problem with one shot kills out to 500 yds. I was skeptical at first, but no more. Customer killed 3 pigs with the 100 gr BD2 attesting to the penetrating power of those bullets. With StaBall 6.5 powder and SRP brass using CCI SRP magnum primers very easy to push the 80 gr BD2 at 3600+ fps from a 22”. 1:10 twist barrel. Recoil is mild even without a brake. [/QUOTE]
