I am in agreement with this also. When I was younger the .243 was viewed as a deer hunting caliber for kids and women and us real men carried 30-06 or 7mm magnum in the woods. I have had a .243 for years and used it mostly for hogs but I found that it was a fantastic round for deer. I no longer hunt but if I was to go on a deer hunt that is what I would carry.Regarding the .243...I know there are more powerful cartridges out there, but is it sufficient for harvesting deer in TX?
