    .223 vs .243 please.

    Depends what you call long range.

    .223 is a great caliber but as soon as you start talking deer and distances over 300m the .243 is going to come out on top.
    As Dougie mentioned, picking the right rifle, load and maybe adding a moderator is going to make a big difference recoil/comfort wise.
