[QUOTE="forest, post: 1969884, member: 86394"] Guys thanks for all the replies this is all very helpful. It's hard to reply to all the posts. There is alot of stuff to digest before making a decision. I don't like making a rush decision that's why I like try to find out as much information here as possible first that's why I ask the questions. Just a bit of info on the foxes and ground we hunt it's mainly just getting them off the sheep farmlands around us so nothing is kept. The ground around us is mostly rolling hills in small fields anything from(1 acers to 10 in some) with hedge and stone ditches dividing them. Some land you can look across the fields others you can't see beyond the hedge or ditch if on level ground. That's why longer shots are harder out our way. Some of the valleys you could shot across fields to others side up to 500 yards. There is also alot of livestock in the fields so the 243 from what I am reading may just be to much punch because of nightshooting. I really don't need the risk of rounds following on through and possibly into the darkness. [/QUOTE]
