[QUOTE="winmagman, post: 355438, member: 1193"] Nick, First, keep in mind these are just my humble opinions. I don't know what she considers long range, but for deer the .243 becomes a marginal choice at about 400-500 yds depending on bullet choice. Yotes and rabbits its fine as far as you can hit em. If I'm going to be putting significant amounts of money into a rig I want it to do everthing I expect of it, I'd upgrade. If she's just talking trigger job and bedding, have it done and leave it a .243 I guess the bottom line here for me is.....Just how far out does she want to shoot deer? Past 500 yds I'd go bigger. Just my thoughts. Chris [/QUOTE]
