[QUOTE="mrb1982, post: 705405, member: 50419"] I know what you are saying about the 243 with a little extra knock down. I really like heavy barreled rifles, hence my Sendero for deer/anything else hunting purposes. I am thinking a standard barreled 22-250 would be good for yotes, main reason being when you are swinging on one of those things on the run, the heavy guns seem to be harder to handle. My sendero with the bipods, it's like I can't miss. Shoot off hand with it, it's a different rifle. It's just built differently for different purposes. I am a Remington man(I know there are other good options too, but just prefer the feel of a remington), so I am kinda leaning towards something like a Remington 22-250 SPS. I can always upgrade the stock on it. Then I could outfit it with a bipod so that I would be good and solid in a sit and call situation, but be able to handle the gun well on a running dog here and there. The one thing that keeps me going back to thinking about the 243 is that I have young kids that in the next few years will be ready to start hunting a little. In one of the states where I do most of my hunting, a 243 is the minimum caliber. If I bought a 243, I could kinda justify it with "dual use" in the future. Then I always thing, well, I would probably need to start them out on a youth style rifle more anyways. If anybody has any opinion they would like to add to this topic as far as experience getting their children started(after learning with a 22 of course), it would be much appreciated. [/QUOTE]
