[QUOTE="johnnyk, post: 560991, member: 307"] Eiither rifle would probably make an excellent varmint skinner. I love the .243 for varmints and I shoot a Winchester M70 HVB in this caliber. I've tried the lighter (55-75gn) bullets and they have impressive speed and detonation on varmints, and for me they were fairly accurate out to 350-400yds but for better wind deflection and success at longer ranges, I went with the heavier pills and like the 90-95gn Ballistic Tips. I recently discovered the 85gn Sierra Game King is very impressive at longer ranges. Shooting at 500yds has produced some eye-opening groups (for me anyway). The best being in the 1.75" range, with most running 3" and less. Let us know which way you go. JohnnyK. [/QUOTE]
