my 243 is too much gun for coyotes. it tears them apart. but is sweet on deer and antelope. but sticking with the question at hand. there's mor bench rest stuff available for target shooting a 308 than a 243. but at ranges to 300 yds, i doubt you'll notice a difference between the two.

i'd get a .223 winchester and put a .243 barrel on it. then it becomes the 6x45. supposed to be an absolutely awesome round for hunting smaller game and equally as good on the target range. been thinking about doing this myself.

solely between the 308 and 243 though... 243 gets my vote every time!!!
