[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3188014, member: 5412"] In your decision, some things to consider.... the .223 and .22-250 have 55 grain bullets that are constructed to be hunting bullets for deer. The .243 only has varmint bullets in .55 grain. I've looked everywhere and talked to all the major manufacturers personally to find a bullet that is considered deer worthy by common standards, but it's all varmint rated. That being said, the Buck I shot with a 55 grain .243 varmint bullet this fall didn't know the difference. No exit wound, but the innards were jelly. I've killed many deer with the .223 and the 22-250, but for the one caliber of the three, I'd go with the .243. [/QUOTE]
