      You should try 6mm ARC. It's hard to find right now, very hard, but has similar ballistics to the. 243 and the 6mm Creedmoor. Yet is small enough to be fired from the AR15 platform.

    • @WHOTEEWHO

      I have videos on 6mm arc. Even at 1,000 yards

      @scaler1179 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Is there a PO Box to send stuff? If you can get ahold of a 6mm ARC, I know CMMG makes one, I'll see about sending some Hornady Black, or Match to use. I'm very curious to see what it would do to a watermelon at a hundred yards, or next time you get to Alabama Arsenal's range,give it a whirl at a thousand. I can send a box of my. 243 as well.

    You need to let your son shoot it and make sure it is sighted in for him. I had my son shoot his salvage 3006 a good bit before the hunting season. I would take him and let him shoot a couple rounds every week until he could hit accurately up to 300 yards. Now my son is grown up and is a sniper in the United States marine corps

      ​@@barrytaylor9300 no such unit in the Marines....you must not be close to your son... I'm a former and the Marine isn't that big we mostly all know every unit and where they are stationed... It's a big deal and to not know the unit is highly unlikely if you are close to them, hell every unit has people to specifically keep you up to date on where they are at within operational security of course but you'd at least know the unit, platoon, company, squad, rank, billet etc.... 🤷

    Best way to sight in. Hold on the target and move crosshair to the bullet hole. Everyone says that a 243 is a good kids or starter rifle for deer hunting. Then they go on to say that the kids are touching bullet holes at 100 yards. Then they say that every deer the kid pulled the trigger on never took another step. I just turned 50 and I guess I never grew up cause I still love the 243. Got my best trophy whitetail with it, he never took another step. You keep shooting and I'll keep watching. Always a good video.

      For meat then it's just behind the shoulder. For a very good trophy then it's center of the shoulder.

      My dadgum 243s are Howas with 22 in. Barrels and after two boxes of 100 gr.bullets, they will shoot one hole groups and it doesn't matter if it's Winchester or Remington! These rifles are the best guns I ever have had with factory loads.

    Great set up.
    Decent ammo.
    Once in a while do a few groups out to say 300 ,350 yards on a target in the shape of vital kill zone of average white tail.
    Say lung shoulder area..
    That was a good example of consistent accuracy.
    Very practical

    I have been a .243 user since the 70"s, now 74 years old. Still shooting a .243 and loading my own ammunition for over 40 years. I've been using a Nozzler 95 gr. Partition bullet since the 70's with much success. I've killed a lot on nice deer over the years, and never had to track one down. I helped a young man track a nice 7 point this past weekend who was using this identical ammo. This was his first deer, shot was taken at 35 yds. and after 60 yds. we lost the blood trail. Found the buck 2 days later approximately 200+ yds. away. His shot was about 4 -5 inches behind the shoulder, slightly low but not too low for a kill. This ammo did not break ribs, or create an exit hole. Would recommend that you look at the type bullet and velocities closely before giving this to your son, who may miss that once in a life time shot. I was not impressed with the knock down capability or damage done by this ammo. Accuracy is important, and can be obtained by lowering the velocity, but bullet performance is essential to killing a trophy buck.

      Fred, i agree with what you said. I lost a deer this year with a solid pass thru on a 40 yard shot. I hit it solid behind the shoulder. I had blood at the initial sight and ended a few yards later. I ended up bringing my dog in to track it. My bird dog ended up following the other deer and i lost it. A few weeks ago, i bumped into a hunter looking for sheds. He ended up finding it and said it's sad that people don't follow up their shots. I explained to him what happened and he was shocked. Perfect pass thru but the bullet never did anything but blow thru like a field point arrow. The other hunter said that the shot should've dropped it with in 50 yards on that shot.
      The previous year, i was hunting deer in North Carolina and shot a small buck. I found lung tissue on the ground and a tiny blood trail about 20 yards. I found the deer in the thicket about 70 yards away w/ no blood. Same thing, pencil hole for an exit. The following day, i shot a really nice 6 and decided a neck shot towards the shoulder was going to be the shot. Deer didn't take a step. the damage was unreal when we skinned it. The owner said i told you the 7mm was the way to go and i told him i used the .243 and he was shocked. I shot several deer with other brands of factory

    An easy way to remember the way to screw the adjustment turrets is this, D.L.C., which means down, left, CLOCKWISE. All scopes are universal in this regard.

    Nice grouping and nice rifle. When younger, I only had a 243 I used on everything. Deer, hogs, varmints. Rarely needed a second shot.

      Very versatile round. Especially with a good bullet. Max point blank range is usually excellent with that setup. I used a Ruger .243 with 100gr ammo until I shot the barrel out. I honestly have taken so many deer and varmints with that set up with an old 4x12 Leupold, that I wouldn't make a guess as to the number. A couple my buddies have witnessed that little rifle pull off some great shots. WHO_TEE_WHO, I hope the boy's have more success with this setup!

      The last deer I bagged was a large Axis doe. That 243 Howa with a 100 gr. Winchester soft point put her down in her tracks at 200 yds and never even twitched. Bullet went clean Tru that does chest as she was standing broadside.

    I love a 243 for hunting deer. It’s enough to drop a deer right where it stands but not too much power to blow out the back or destroy too much meat.

    Just bought 3 boxes of these in 243 and one in 3006. I have a browning x bolt in 243 and a bolt in 3006. Both shoot 1/2 in groups with the Norma ammo.

      I use 85gr. Gamekings and IMR4064, but I'm loading some 80gr barnes ttsx 80gr at 3335 fps. I've got room to possibly reach 3450 or 3500. Groups are under Moa at 3335.

    Since you have so many American Rugers, take one and see how accurate you can get it by bedding the stock, adjusting/or trigger swap then maybe try different stocks. Great videos, keep them coming. 👍

    .243 is my favorite round and great round for central TX. I’ve seen some of your other Norma white tail videos These Norma bullets all look a little thick, maybe the camera adds 10grains.
