Default RE: Remington Model 788 .243 WIN

my wife and I both shoot 243 for deer and hogs.they work great. I use only Wenchester ammo 100 gr. PSP never had a problem.
up until last year I have only lost one deer and no hogs,the one deer I lost was my fault,bad hit on me.
last year I lost one deer that I under shot.I put my right eye out in Oct. and had to learn to shoot left handed.that was a chore.all my shots were to low for some reason.have corrected that now.

my wife has only lost one deer,that was a bad hit on her part also.she has not lost any hogs.

the two of us have taken several 100 deer over the years.so three deer is not bad in my opinion.

take good shots that you feel that you can hit and go for it.
