Topics like this one go a long way in explaining why I've become such a fan of the 6.5x55 in recent years. Most commercial rifles in this caliber are very accurate and kick little more than most .243s.
100 and 120gr bullets are available for those smallish deer in the southeast while there are 140 grainers for the larger midwestern deer. In the heavily forested areas of the mid-Atlantic states the 160gr. SPSP (round nose to me) is ideal for brush busting. The caliber handles everything from 85 to 160grs. That's one heck of a range. Just one mans opinion, but I'm sold on it. Best wishes.
