Which would be better for a youth on southeastern whitetaila 257 roberts ora 243win
The .243 is a suberb cartridge, and is a little better than the .257 Roberts for varmint shooting. The .257 Roberts is a superb cartridge, which will work for varmint shooting, and is better than the .243 for deer. For deer mainly, the 6.5X55mm, 6.5X57mm, or the .260 Remington is better than either the .243 or .257......
