Deer went 15 yards, found dead, nuff said! I used a 6mm for years when whitetail hunting. It's ballistically the same as the .243. I would say it's all the gun you need for whitetail. I never shot one over 300 yards, but I shot many at 200-270 yards or so, and I was always satisfied with the performance. Good bullets are a must, as was previously mentioned. I've killed a lot of deer with a 7 Mag, but it's way too much gun for deer under most circumstances. But when you're hunting bear, deer, or whatever on a hunt, but you need to take the right gun for all game.
But if you consider the light weight, light recoil, and consistency of your .243, it's a hard gun to beat for NYS whitetails.

Nice buck! I couldn't remember if the Rage 2 or 3 was illegal in NYS. Are they all legal now?
