Well to make a long story short, I don't plan on wasting bullets or time with another 243 after that, but my 243 isstill good for "open range" shots. Thanks. Oh, what grain of the MRL should I use and how much does a box of MRL cost? Thanks, Frank.
Sorry, but i don't think changing your gun from a 243 to 270 is gonna amount to a hill of beans in this case. Shoot through trees and you run the risk of deflection no matter what cartridge you choose
As far as the MRL by Remmington, I've used them in my 270. They are as advertised, much lighter recoil. They only come in 1 weight and they ran me about $23 per box
