I Just recently purchased a H&R 243 Youth Rifle for the heck of it... I've Never killed a deer although have been hunting a few times. The rife that I already own is a Remington 700 7mm Rem Mag, but was looking for something small & light weight. I've been told that a 243 is all you need really since I hunt in the woods and my shot range is 60 yards or less. I put a pretty big scope on it which maybe overkill but that's what I like in scope's, personal preference I guess... It's a Leapers 4-16x50 with a 3" sun shield. The Ammo that I bought for it is Winchester 243 100 gr. Power-Point... Mind you, I still need to shoot it to fine tune the scope, Just looking for some advanced knowledge... I'm ex military and have been around weapons, I still would like to hear from other hunters and there experiences...
