Ok so i have a old ruger m77 sittin in the gun safe for like 2 years un touched, maybe longer. i always thought of the 243 as a 100-150MAX yard rifle.
You owned a tool for that long and never read up on it?
hmm.
The 243 Winchester is a bad little man. I dont know why anyone would doubt it for deersized stuff and smaller at ranges farther than the averageperson can shoot. Ifsomeone cant make a 300yrd shot with a 243 then it is doubtfult they are going to make it with any cartridge.
