I have a deal lined up with used 700 and Leup scope I was thinking this and some 100 GR corelock would be good starter rifle for nephew and in a few years my boys. What do you think. Whitetail Deer rifle

sounds great. Light recoil lots of power at range light weight. I use Barns TSX bullets in my wifes 243 they have never let her down. Up here the avarage doe goes 170lbs and the bucks well over 200.
Do you hand load or are you going to get off the shelf ammo? Federal fusion is a great low cost bonded round as well.

I've shot two bucks with 100gr winchester powerpoints. The 1st didnt take a step and was dead before he hit the ground, the second stumbled for about 5yds and kicked a few times once down....easy track jobs.
I love the .243win as a deer cartridge. I'm a grown man, and i'm not ashamed to shoot a "light recoil gun"...lol

the fusion also. I just have had good luck with other corelock rifle ammo so figured it would be good starting point

Yeah I used to do most my shooting at GCL but looking for longer range and one that has some clay shooting also. I have thought about a membership there. A few of my buddys shoot there and love it. I hunt down between Nunda and Angellica
