The 243 is a good gun. It just requires that you take good shots and don't miss. My 7mm is a lot more forgiving because I know I'm going to cause an extreme amount of damage wherever I hit. The 243 needs a proper lung/heart shot.
All rounds require a proper shot. I'll take an accurate shot with a 243 0r 30-30 over sprayin and praying, or flinching before the shot with a magnum.

My son shot his first few with a 223 and the next few with 243. He has never lost one but made some high lung shots with the 243 and they ran 75 to 90 yards in a pine thicket with little to no blood. Him shooting the 270 with managed recoil has made my job easier. I also agree with the 30 30. they make a good hole.
