Wow. That's a really persuasive argument you didn't make.

I was laying in bed ,on my phone, no glasses drunk with insomnia. I was just pointing out how bad your post was, and it was bad.

There are times a bullet may need to penetrate bones (like ribs , but mainly upper leg) to get into the chest. I explained that in my post.

Ribs yes. No true bone. A rib is nothing for an arrow much less a .243 bullet. if you hit true bone, you've missed badly. People really need to pay more attention to anatomy.

I explained all that in my post.

No, you did not. Waiting for the significant limitations

You think I just woke up one day and started bow hunting? Turn your troll off. You're much better that way.

I don't know which is why I asked.

My story is true, not trolling.

Not being able to take a shitty shot is apparently a significant limitation

Or accidentally making a bad shot as people (not me of course) often do.

But yea, it is definitely a massive limitation. If I see a deer I want to kill and it isn't cooperating, I want to get it anyway.

Shots that are unethical with the .243 are not unethical bigger calibers. I can shoot a deer at any angle with a .30-06 and premium 180gr bullets and know that I will reach the vitals, break bones if they're in the way, and get an exit. You absolutely cannot do that with a .243 with any load. It is not going to reliably exit and if you don't get a bang-flop youll be doing work and maybe calling the dog.

This aint hard. You can get more horsepower (and therfore better results when the stars don't line up) for an imperceptible increase in recoil. The .243 does nothing that a host of other calibers can't do better when it comes to deer.

Your .30 cal isn't going to help you.

What is, and what cartridges are subject to this?

Name these shots.

You really should not post about bullets, cartridges or deer hunting anymore. You really have zero idea what you're talking about.

South Carolina study on deer hunting says caliber isn't as important as shot placement.

LINK

Conclusions

Shooting percentages about 82%.
The farther the shot, the lower the chance of getting the deer.
Deer ran about 62 yards on average.
Shot placement is determining factor. All things considered, broadside shoulder shot worked best compared to others.
About 50:50, deer run vs. deer don’t run.
Trained dog expedited recovery of all deer that ran.
Dog very important in recovering 61 deer that left poor/no sign, 24 deer judged unrecoverable, and 19 live/wounded deer.
Dog accounted for approximately 15 – 20% of total harvest on hunting area, i.e. 75 – 100 deer.
No difference in effectiveness of various calibers.
No difference between factory vs. custom firearms.
Significant difference between bullet types. This study indicates that rapidly expanding bullets lead to deer running less often and less distance and when they run they leave better sign.

I feel like you're arguing with yourself at this point

I'm not arguing with anyone. I'm trying to explain to some trolls why they are wrong

I probably said it 10 times already.

Put the deer at any angle and you can get an exit with a 180gr partiton from 50 yards to 250 yards every single time and break a leg on the way out.

Its like yall are perfectly ok not shooting a deer that does not cooperate
