Like I said, the TKO rating comes from big game hunters that take down dangerous game, not me. I'm sure the .243 does just fine on a deer when placed right but when the chips are down and a dangerous animal is within a hundred yards and could possibly charge I'd rather have the bigger heavier round. I did'nt mean to take this topic off to big, dangerous African game it just came up when reading about the TKO and I thought the formula was interesting.
