[QUOTE="c_bass16, post: 784890, member: 20355"] It wasn't meant to be a way to toot my own horn, it's just the simple fact that AR10 rifles are heavier than most people would like. The 300 SAUM could be hand for under $1500 without optics...but not in this market. You're probably looking at closer to double now days. Either the 243 or the 25 WSSM is great for deer...the only draw back of the 25 is bullet options, but if you get one between 100-117 that will shoot good, you'll have it made in the shade. With the 243, you're going to be limited to the 105gr bullets. For the WSSM's you can actually get by with 22" barrels and get complete powder burn if you run the heavier bullets. If you want to go down to the lighter varmint rounds at ultimate speed, then the 24" will get you better bang for your buck. Gotta remember, the thing that most people love about the WSSM is the speed....and if you're not getting everything out of it that you can, there is probably better choices to make. [/QUOTE]
