Remember the Rem Mohawk. Nice small frame rifle. I saw 3 of them at my local gunshop in that price range. Thay had 2 in .243 and one in a 6mm.
I would go with either .
I wouldnt reccomend managed recoil rounds unless you already had a large caliber rifle, but if your buying one I'd go with the .243. Managed recoil roundsaint got nothingon the .243, the bullets just dont offer the sectional density nor the veloity coupled with a rapid expanding bullet, now that spells trouble in my book.Why ayone would recomend them is beyond me.
The Federal catalog doesn't offer a Low Recoil round for .243 so I can't see the ballistics. However, I don't see where you need to manage recoil on a .243. It already kicks little more than a .22 and I seriously doubt the recoil will be an issue for anyone.
I would say "beware" just by virtue of the fact that the .243 is probably considered borderline for deer already and they can't reduce recoil without also sacrificing some energy.
