My research is stearing me towards the .243 for all round small caliber preditor/varmint gun.
Any arguments?
I don't roll my own. In a gunI'm looking for lighter recoil so I will shoot more often, a caliber which is legal to take (small) big game (.23 minimum in Wyoming), with ample variety of inexpensive ammo readily available.

I have built a Mauser Mark X in 243 caliber, in gunsmithing school.
From the Receiver up.
For the same reasons that every one else stated.
plus I built it for my two sons one is 14 and the other is 15 years old, to shoot.
I am makeing a stock for it from English Walnut. ( From a blank peace of wood. )
It will be finished around Dec 10, 2007
I can't waite to shoot it.
