Default RE: .243 for deer

Last year I dropped nine big mulies with nine shots from the 270. I used 130 grain Federal Fusions. All were pass throughs. None went more than 25 yards and only two didn't drop where they stood. The rifle, 700 ADL will group well under an inch at 100 yards with that load. Several 270's have been amoung my most accurate rifles. 90 percent of my shots on mulies are 200 yards+.
