I have never had any meat damage with the 243, and I have never had a bullet stay in a Roe, or a Sika hind come to that. I have never shot one beyond about eighty yards with the 243, woodland stalking, a boiler room shot will pass right through in my experience. I am really fond of my .243, I have just started casting bullets for it. I usually drive the speer BT with 43 grains of H4350 and use it for Fox as well as Deer.

I think the 243 is a round that is passed over too quickly as being any use for anything except for Fox and the like, but that's just me.

i too am fond of 243 i have shot over 700 fallow with a 243 the only problem with it is a lot of blood shot meat and damage if you decide to put a bullet in the shoulder apart from that it puts them down very quick ..too many people read to many articles condemning the 243 as being on the light side without using 1 any rifle 22 hornet and bigger is a deer rifle if its the only 1 youve got
