RE: Tired of the 243 debate
Gary Alt reported that 2 of the 4 deer killed in Pennsylvania this year were killed with 243s. One ( a doe) was shot with a non-premium bullet in the tail and dropped in its tracks while the other (meeting the antler restrictions) was double lunged and ran 200 yards. It has yet to be determined if the 243 was either adequate or inadequate for the job. One of the other deer was shot with a 35 Rem. Alt felt that the 30-30 would have been better.
There, I mentioned just about everything I'm sick of seeing on this board.
Merry Christmas
