[QUOTE="Plinker147, post: 1161444, member: 88320"] I built a light weight gun in a 325 short mag. It has 20 in Douglas air gauge barrel on it. Came in around 7lbs. Its about 1-1/2 MOA 3 shot group accuracy. But it is first shot cold bore accurate. Furthest game I have taken is 500yds with 200gr accubond. this is strictly a back country elk gun and hits its limits around 600yds. It is possible but it depends on what one goals are in terms on accuracy. With .243 you should be able to build a light weight MOA accurate gun [/QUOTE]
