RE: which rifle will you be taking
 

I've been hunting for 17 years and have always used a 12 ga or my .30-06. This year, I'm taking my Coyote set-up for deer hunting. I've never taken a deer with it before, but I'm confident in it. Its a tac driver

Remington Model 700 ADL - .243 Win
Remington Core-lokt 100 grains
Simmons 4.5x - 12x 40mm

My sons hunting with a .243 this year so I figured - I'll do the same!

Me - Ruger M77 MKII, 7mm Rem Mag. 150 grain Core-Lokt bullets and silver ballistic tips, 3-9*50 scope

Father - Remington 742, 30-06 165 grain Hornady SST's, Redfield scope 3-9*? (dunno model, wide ones)

Will be using my .243 of course, dont need no other stinkin caliber, it does it all for me here in Texas, and does it very well I might add.
Hey skyhigh throw them corelocks in the trash, try 100 gr Hornady's not the light magnums just the regular 100 gr hornady's. Talk about driving tacks and dropp'n deer or hogs. I would highly reccomend them for the .243. If your just going after deer and are not shooting over .200 yds try the Federal 85 gr. Hollow points. They blow huge holes in deer
I just dont like them on hogs. Or over 200yds cause of wind drift. I have tested lots of different ammo in my .243 and these two are the best at the range and on animals.
PS remember to let me know if you try them and their results.
