[QUOTE="Jeff W., post: 357808, member: 9893"] Fitch: Thanks for the feed back. It is funny the perspective we hunters take on such subjects. Most predator hunters think a 243 AI is too much gun for coyotes and such. To each his own. Regarding your suggestion on the 300 win mag, I already have a 30x338 my father had custom built on a pre64 M70 in 1951. He had the gun built before the 300 win mag was introduced. the 30x338 gives you a little more neck to work with and slightly out performs the 300 - otherwise they are very similar. It has already taken several elk with 165 grain Nosler BT's. It is a tremendous rifle and will take anything I could hunt in North America. It is getting old and I was thinking about replacing it in a custom rig. While I was contemplating such a build, I got on my 243 AI jag. As you say, it is a blast to muse on such things. Take care.
