We've been looking at deer rifles for my fiance and I'm trying to debate between a 270 and a 243 for her. trying to come up with something with a decent amount of Knocked Out power but not something with a whole lot of kick what are your opinions.

243 would be a great option for sure!!
Been a great deer cartridge for a long time, and great for smaller shooters as well.
Great bullet selection, brass can be had pretty easily, and it is a good target caliber as well
That's what I have bad at leading towards for her what are they that gets hard as she is a left-handed shooter and left-handed guns are in limited Supply around here. But if I get her a bolt action right hand and she'll still be able to shoot it and then if I want to use it I can steal it

Good idea :)
Hard to beat having at least 1 243 in the family ;)
243 would be my first choice, followed closely by 7mm-08, and then 260rem.

.243 is a great round for deer and easy on the shoulder. 7mm-08 is a good one as well. But how about a single shot? CVA Hunter and compact hunter are affordable, accurate and ambidextrous. I have one in 7mm 08 and another in 45/70adcold not be more pleased.
Nothing wrong with a .243 or any others mentioned. And, I don’t even have one yet myself. But, I like different stuff. I always wanted a .257 Roberts for deer. Little more rare, but definitely will git r done!
Bought my gf,who is 5'2" and weighs about 120lbs,a savage axis 7mm-08. She can shoot the hell out it. She claims theres little recoil. I've shit it and not near as much recoil as my 270.

.243 is a solid deer rifle, but it can do more.

Ruger American Ranch chambered in 300BLK. Great for deer and hogs out to about 250 with the right bullet.
Mine has the youth stock (12.5" LOP). Love it. ---- SAWMAN
Youth rifles are awesome in a tree stand.... I’m not a little guy, but I love sitting in my tree stand with my gf youth crossbow.
