RE: Smallest Caliber For Deer Hunting
The smallest I personally hunt with is a .308. I would not have a problem using a .243. I did buy my son(7 year old) a 22-250 this past season and heused it just fine. I don't have a problem with using any gun that will get the job done. What I mean by that is not only the gun, but the shooter putting in the time to make sure he/she gets it done too.
