I switched to .243 this year and hammered two Hill Country whitetails at ~140 yards. Both were heart lung shots resulting in bang flops using the Hornaday Light Magnum SST 95gr bullet. It looked like the deer were struck by lightning through the scope! You won't be disappointed as long as you use premium ammo.
