Default RE: most accurate .243 ammo

It's not the weight of the bullet, it's the length. The heavier match bullets are longer thats why they don't stabilize in slow twist barrles. For deer I like the 100 grain Sierra Game kings and for all out accuracy I like the 87 grain V-Max with 40.2 grains of H4350. That load would be good for deer but I wouldn't stretch it out to 400 yards. For all that matters I wouldn't shoot a deer at 400 yards with a 243 with a 100 grain bullet. I guess it would work I just would like something with a little more Umph!
