Default RE: How the .243 stacks up

Heh, heh.

200 yard shots aren't the ones that worry me. It is the close thickets and double canopy forest where I may not have much time to draw a bead. (That's why I don't go North with anything under .44 caliber.)

Now, I have heard from credible people (who sounded sober at the moment) that the 223 Remington has been used by eskimos on the big bear, and poachers have used same in Africa on elephants. (Actually, I heard this stationed in Saudi in the MP battalion.) So, maybe now is a good time to ask, where do you place the shot, if you know?
