We partly succeed this year in trying to kill one deer for each claiber we own. 06, 280, and 243 scored. No ML, 22-250, 7mm08, or 300 WinMag. Going to do it again next year.
Now this is what I call a study! 
Got anymore data on kills?

I really like my .243 but just about any projectile placed accurately will do the job.

I have a Browning safari in 308 norma mag. If I could get past the recoil I would like to kill something with it someday. That gun will hurt you!
