Sitting at the lower end of the big game rifle spectrum, the .243 is relatively flat-shooting and light recoiling. For this reason, it is a great option for small-framed or young shooters and is often a first big game gun for kids learning to pursue deer-sized game. It can be used effectively on game as large as elk, though the lighter 100-grain bullets, among the heaviest loaded in .243, leave little margin for error making accurate shot placement absolutely critical.
.270 Win. – Touted by Outdoor Life great Jack O’ Connor as the best all-around American hunting cartridge of his day, the legendary writer used the .270 Win. to great effect taking countless sheep (his true passion in hunting) as well as a host of other North American big game including game as large as moose and grizzlies. It is a light shooting rifle that utilizes a .277-inch bullet fired from a necked down .30-06 cartridge, at the time of its development in the 1920s, the most popular hunting cartridge around. It was originally introduced loaded with a 130-grain bullet that broke the then-rare 3,000-fps barrier leaving the barrel at an advertised 3,100 fps.
