RE: Favorite .243 or 7mm-08 Rifle
Thank goodness for all the different cartridges!!! What would we have to argue about if we didn't have so many different cartridges. If I had to choose between the two I would choose the 7-08. However I would choose the daddy(308) over both of them. But then I prefer the 30 caliber.
As far as the rifle is concerned. It depends on how you hunt and how much you have to spend. If I were you I would buy the best I could afford. Remember if you buy the right one the first time, you may never need to buy another(Oh my what did I just say). Tom.
