I love a 243, unfortunately most hunters think the should only be used by kids and women. They don't realize they shoot as flat as a magnum and have good killing power. I wish I still had all the h&r rifles I had.
Just got a small spike, seventy two paces.

Shot it with my H&R 243 handy rifle.
Dropped right where it stood, no thrashing.
I am free pretty much any day.Troy we need to all get together.
Wedn looks like a wash out, if so we will be going to the Greene Gun Club the that a ride over by South Otselic. If you want to go we can stop at Mayhoods over in Norwich.
I just got up to Walton,
Thanks, now we just have to get together lol.Glad you made it
I have been following this thread with interest. I have also been watching the thread 'The View from Your Stand" and I'm still amazed at the limitation many have on their shots due to the trees/brush. I know a lot of people cut shooting lanes but a lot of the views that I have seen have tiny holes that the hunter has to thread a bullet through. My compliments to you who an do so well.
I'd say from Westchester county and up.It's like threading a needle...
Say, where the heck is upstate NY anyway?

I think if you have farms you can call it up state, we all would like to float NYC out to sea lol. It's 1.5 hours from were I love to the city but 50 years ago it was half a day drive. It was very icey getting here yesterday, lots of cars in the ditch.Some say "If you can commute to NYC you're not upstate". Some say "north of Poughkeepsie". Kind of like the saying "ya can't get there from here"...
Didn't get much snow here (southern Albany county). Nothing left on the ground. Haven't seen many deer moving, been kind of warm... Hopefully I can sneak around in the woods tomorrow...
By the way, I also think the .243 to be a good killer for whitetail...
