Very possible.. the recoil is not that bad, reduced load pushing 150 nbt at 2300 fps, but is still more than the 243 will be. He really hates to noise as much as anything, If i had a suppressor i think he would shoot it all day.

Thanks for the replies, As this rifle is for my SON, who is 6, his shots will be under 200yards. I will load both and see what the rifle likes. I currently run a reduced load in my 308 rem 788 for him, but the recoil is a little more than he likes. I have ran the numbers and the 243 will...

First off I realize I am splitting hairs, however here goes. I am not a fan of the 243 win for deer, but after a lot of agonizing, I have bought a Marlin XS7 youth for my son. I intended to put as many odds in our favor as possible by using 100 gr Partitions. Brass has been hard to find so a...

Is the classic stock a sa or la?

Thanks, I will stick with them and see what I can make this thing do.

are they capable of maintaining 1/2 moa accuracy out to 1000yds??? Considering that they are not a true "match" quality bullet, how consistent are they? Specifically, I am using 168 ct ballistic tips for hunting and target shooting and am considering switching to Bergers. I only want to use one...

We realize what our percentages are, and dropping 3 grand for a bowhunt where we can reasonably expect 3 out of 4 of us to come home emptyhanded is the reality, on a gun hunt I feel we would have a higher percentage, but lesser quality.

Several friends and I are trying to plan a trip for 2009. We would like to hear some recommendations as to where and with who we should book. Right now we are looking at Illinois during the Nov bow season but are flexible as to location and weapon types. Our concerns are having a geniune chance...

Looking for an upgrade to my Bushnell compact 800 and ran across one of these, I know Leica is top notch and wonder how far I can expect under reasonable conditions to range game. My disapointment with the Buchnell is its lack of ability to range game past 450 or so. Looking for something that...

The EGW 25 moa looks like it will do the job. Any suggestions for super high 30mm rings?? Thanks

I am setting up my new savage 10fp 308 and need a sloped base as I have run out of adjustment at 650 yards. I have a SA GEN 3 6x20x56 and when zeroed at 100 I only have 16moa of adjustment left. I would like to be able to get to 1000 and it appears that a 20 moa base might make it or might not...
