Others may disagree, but a 243 with the RIGHT bullet is a very adequate deer cartridge. I broke my neck in 2013 and had to switch to a mild recoiling rifle while I recovered. I started loading 85gr Barnes Triple Shock bullets and haven't looked back. I get a pretty big entrance hole and and exit hole the size of a silver dollar. I have other rifles that I could use now, but the 243 works well. I've never lost a deer that I've shot with it. Good Luck! I agree with that. Very happy with Barnes TTSX performance with what Ive shot. All pass thru and good blood trails. Only had one slug recovered out of all of them and it went the length of a hog and lodged just under the skin. Havent had a deer go more than 50 yards with them and always been a good blood trail.
