Ah, the best deer rifle is chambered for 257 Roberts, 6.5X55mm "Swede", or a300 Savage(but only if the Savage is a model 99 rifle).

270 or 308 for me. When I hunt the woods the 308 works better for me with a 165 grain bullet. the 270 is a flat long range IMHO

yep
if you were shooting a 85 tsx and hit the deer in the front shoulder it would be dead where it stood. Not using proper bullets and placeing them correctly is not the guns fault. I have seen a deer shot in the lungs with a .375 ultra mag run off and found 500 plus yards away. it is 2012 not 1956 any more if people would use properly constucted projectiles and shoot more than 10 times a year they would not see such issues. I have shot pdogs with my 308 that have crawled back in their hole i must be under guned. placement,construction, headstamp is how it goes for some i would just stick to fishing the way it sounds here.

Could it be that the .243 was fast enough and had a small enough (bullet) projectile, that when the deer was
hit in the lungs, that the bullets passed clean through without expanding ? |
