[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 227190, member: 505"] The 243 AI is extremely accurate at 1000 yards with the 105 match bullets. I have one twisted for 55 and 75 varmint bullets and another for the 105's. I also have the same in the 240 gibbs and 6mm-06 AI and the 240 wby. The 240 gibbs is better at long range since it will drive the 105 way faster than the 243 AI. The 243 and 240 gibbs twisted for the 105's have a tight neck chamber and shoot really good to a 1000 yards. They are all very accurate. Of the ones I have the 243 AI is slightly more accurate than the others. I zero them at 300 yards and the 243 AI will consistently shoot 5/8" groups at that range. They are great varminters and coyote rifles which is why I built them. The brass for the 240 wby is just to high and can't be made from anything else so it gets the least use although it is a great performer. I did it for my wife and son to shoot deer and antelope with because it has virtually no recoil. None of these have recoil to mention. For a coyote rifle I think you would be very pleased with any of these. [/QUOTE]
