I agree with slayer the dont get me wrong the 243 is a great gun for small game like coyotes but it does not compare to the .30 caliber rifles like the .270 and the .308 go to remington.com its shows u all the ballistics the .243 is nuttin but a puddle jumper its a great gun for young hunters BUT IT AINT HALF THE GUN OF THE .30 CALIBER RIFLES
