[QUOTE="RD57, post: 1900474, member: 103010"] I don't see the 243 Win passing away into obscurity. What would help keep it alive and kicking is if manufacturers would provide an option on rifling twist rates such as 1/10 and 1/8. I'm a close range hunter snob, I like getting close with my bow, black powder and centerfire rifles. I like being a sneaky bastard that enjoys the hunt, I do not prefer setting up for long range shots on animals. My definition of long range is over 500 yards for hunting, it was over 900 meters when I was sniping in the military. With that in mind, my 243 will remain my primary antelope and whitetail cartridge. [/QUOTE]
