Let the flames begin...................
(1) The 243 and 260 are basically a 308 light. Why shoot the light when you can shoot the daddy.
(2) The 25-06 is basically a 30-06 light. Again why shoot the light when you can shoot the daddy.
(3) The 30 caliber is the king. Most smaller cartridges are compared to the 30 caliber all the time. "This or that cartridge compares to the 30-06"?? Why buy a comparison cartridge?? Buy the daddy?? There is better bullet selection!! And cheaper ammo!! And no need for expensivebullets!!
If you are recoil sensitive then buy the light loads. But unless you have a physical problem then I say "Buck it up". Tom.
Already havetwo 30.06's which makes point1, 2, and 3mute.
What I amlooking for though is a nice midsize (.24-.26) caliber to have fun with. I figure if you are going to get one midsize caliber, ask the people who have them what they think.
