Default RE: deer guns... what about 243 wssm

It seems to me that the short mags were developed to make more sales of firearms and ammunition. I don't see the need, but get one if you want, but cartridge selection and availability may be limited in some areas. They are expensive also. The plain .243 is plenty of rifle to bring down any deer in north america with proper shot placement.
