Most Accurate .243 Big Game Hunting Bullet

Sierra’s 85 grain bullet would most likely kill deer size game nicely. The 6mm‘s, for me, have turned out to be very effective deer killers. One shot drop in their tracks kind of good. and they do this with very little recoil. I started my daughter with a little Remington 243 model seven and ended up liking the results so well I started to carry a 243 For deer.
 
This is the rifle I built for deer, coyotes and general varmint killing. It’s a L.A.W., Legendary Arms Works 6 Creedmoor. It is built around an Ed Brown designed model 704 action with one of their smaller stocks. I sent it to PacNor for one of their barrels, general trueing and tuning work. I put a good trigger in it and started to tune for loads. it turned out to where Bergers 105 VLD Hybrid target loads where some of the most accurate loads I found. It’s nice when I can just buy factory ammo for a rifle. By the way this load also shoots VERY well with another of my rifles. With these loads this little rifle shoots 1/2” 5 shot groups as long as I don’t screw it up. I’m working on a load to shoot the 87 grain bullets because I like them so much. And the dog is a character in general.
