Unfortunately the 243WSSM is a completely dead cartridge with no bolt rifle manufacturers chambering it any more. Only a couple of AR15 manufacturers chamber rifles in the WSSM cartridges. For this reason your rifle really isn't worth anything unless you get really lucky and find the 1 in ten thousand people that would actually buy one knowing this.

You may actually be better off selling it now and getting what you can for it before no one makes ammo for it any more and you are stuck with a useless rifle.

I tell you this as someone that works in a gun and archery shop 6 days a week and we will not take a WSSM in on trade.


And the 7mm-08 is an excellent deer cartridge with very mild recoil.
