RE: .300 Win Mag vs. .243
The REAL LOSERS are you guys who give him a hard time for asking the question. You all posted sarcastic answers, on your own free will, attempting to bash him. Therefore, he's not wasting your time. You are wasting your time. This is a "forum". People are supposed to ask questions here. And you have NO AUTHORITY over him, so give give him a break, and quit acting like the Taliban. Why does it matter that he asks a question like this? People should be able to ask whatever they want.
In response to the question: A 300 win mag is much more powerful than a 243. Although as a deer rifle, both are excellent inside of 200 yds.
