RE: Deer rifle for small shooter
No I wasnt talking about low recoil rounds in the .243. People will say a .243 is minimal round for deer or inadequate, but then in the same breath suggest 30-06 low recoil rounds. pffffffft! Managed recoil rounds cant even compare to what the .243 gives. Low recoil rounds dont have the B.C nor S.D of the .243. coupled with low velocity and a rapid expanding bullet now youve barely got an adequate combination.
The .243 is the way to go.
