Whew my cyber bladder is full so i guess i' ll empty it here!
How many times has this been debated?
Anyway i own a 243 and a 6mm rem. both WILL kill deer . i will testify to the fact. my 243 killed four deer this year. my son hunts with it and by god he is a great shot! one shot kills all. none ran over 50 yards.
the only problem i have is self induced. i had him shooting 70 grain BT' s. no blood trail!
as rockytop sad avoid ballistic tips.
i am now working a load for partitions 100gr.
i bet it drops a few more this fall. anybody up for a bet?
Oh yeah i have tracked a few deer that were shot with bigger calibers much farther, why? poor bullet placement!
It ain' t the gun it' s the shooter!
