.243 Winchester is made to order for you...It's the only centerfire rifle I have owned since 1980 and I have killed over 200 deer with it...I'm 6ft 5 and 240 so don't think it's just for women either...

One huge advantage...Go to your local Walmart and price .243 ammo vs .260 or 7mm-08 (if they have it)!!!

100gr Remington CoreLokts work as good as any bullets in this caliber ...
