[QUOTE="TORCHRIDER, post: 483774, member: 27434"] Mr. Allen, Thank you for your reply. I have many rifles in standard chamberings that I have developed loads for over the years. I thought it was finally time to spread my wings and try a non-standard offering. I thought an improved cartridge might be the best way to get my feet wet versus a true wildcat that meant case forming or something even more complex. As we now have a 1000 yard range close to my house (Best of the west - Central Texas) I figured it might as well be a round that was capable of reaching out that far, but didn't want to spend an arm and a leg on components or beat my shoulder to death. So I chose the .243AI for better or worse. I still have plans on a certain magnum offering in the future. :cool: My varmint gun is a .22-250 and .223. Here is a link to the .243: [URL]http://www.longrangehunting.com/forums/f53/first-long-range-rifle-complete-69348/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
