[QUOTE="Wiley, post: 4532498, member: 15835"] I've killed dozens of deer with a .243 but the last year I used it I missed a buck 3 times standing still in the woods at about 75 yards. I was hitting something that I couldn't see with those 95gr bullets. I moved my rest over about 6" for the 4th shot and dropped the buck, a nice 7 point. He never moved on the first 3 shots as he stood with his head behind a big white oak the whole time. I moved up to a .308 for the next season and have used it exclusively ever since. [/QUOTE]
