[QUOTE="el matador, post: 1026489, member: 12193"] Between those two I'd get the .308. It will drift more, but it's mostly a practice gun right? Better to practice with a gun that drifts more anyway, that way you learn to dope the wind better. I agree with winmagman that the .243 is a little "anemic" as a long range hunting caliber. I think if you'd prefer something that drifts less than a .308 and are willing to give up some barrel life you'd be better off with a .260. It drifts the same or less than a .243 and has more punch as a hunting round. [/QUOTE]
