Completely agree how few could actually do that at that distance with any cartridge period but this is talking about 'can it do it'....yes it can, it's not asking whether or not the shooter can do it
i ran bone stock 6mm creedmoor 108 gr number at 2960 fps launch and was just under 1500 fps at 1000 yards at zero feet elevation. So add a couple hundred fps for a modern .243 set up with a guy that know's his poop and i have no doubt he could hit a deer at 1100 with 1600 fps and a 105 gr.

Good lord Stinky,
You must be the second guy from the video.
