[QUOTE="Hawkeye5, post: 985495, member: 2408"] Add the .243 and 30/30 to the above list and you have some of the best deer calibers available. You don't need super hi-tech bullets for deer either, so Winchester power point, Remington Core-Loke, and other lower tech expanding bullets will do just fine. The real question, as posed several times already, is which caliber/rifle combination do you shoot well and feel comfortable using. I have a ultra-light synthetic stocked .308 that will beat the stuffing out of you at the range, but another .308 standard rifle with a laminated stock that is very mild. Caliber is not the sole consideration, but from a pratical point of view I see no need for the short and long mag. calibers for deer in Tennessee. [/QUOTE]
