My 4 granddaughters have killed 9 deer with a youth model 243. Average shot distance about 90 yards. none of the deer killed ran over 20 yards. Rounds used are 90 grain Winchester.
I like it if not too cold or raining too hard. It's quiet and scent doesn't carry as bad. Can see a lot of neat things animals do in bad weather. Animals don't seem to care much as they got to eat anyway.
