Rory/MO.... Nice buck!
Did the .243 literally drop that 10 pointer in his tracks, or did he run, say, 50 yards before he dropped?
Guys, I'm not bashing a .243 okay? It's a great rifle. I own a .308 which I love dearly. The .243 is just a necked down .308and is accurate as hell. But then the .308 will drop anything on this continent too, with proper shot placement.
It's my brother's, and yes, straight down.
I actually moved up from a .243 to the .308 and am glad I switched, but I still wouldn't be afraid to pull out the old .243 either.
