From choosing a tipped .243 or a flat nose 30-30 as they actually are, still better off with .243?
Seik,
You can't shoot pointed projectiles in a lever or pump action, where a tube magazine is used.
Nose to primer. Boom banga bang bang.
Also if you were to be shooting pigs or goats or anything that has spent a lot of time lying around in mud, that mud
can dry out to be very thick and hard. Another problem for lighter projectiles.
Not saying a 243 won't kill pigs, but something a little heavier will, every time they're within distance.
