    I think "back in the day" projectiles were equal in all calibres. The did not single out the .243 to make crappy ones for.
    As for shooting Elk with a .243? Probably similar to shooting a big Red with a .223. It can be done but there are MUCH better tools for the job. Most in the States consider the .270 marginal at best.
    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.
