I got rid of my .243, but I do have a 6mm and it has been a great shooter. It has killed over 100 white-tailed deer and some antelope with no issues. I load Hornady 100-grain Interlocks right at 3000 fps. It has killed deer from close to out past 300 yards. Doing summer depredation work, I found that I much preferred the head, neck and high shoulder shots over lung shots because blood trailing in tangled swamps during mosquito season is no fun!
Every gun/bullet can lead to a lost animal if things don't go right, but usually, a good hit with a 6mm bullet is a dead animal.
