Wonderful cartridge...just in the wrong hands.

A .243 for deer would honestly be my pick...but again, it depends on whose hands its in.


Absolutely!

Nearly any CF cartridge will kill deer handily within that cartridge's range of effectiveness. I've killed a bunch with a .243, and never lost a deer wounded with the cartridge.
