    243 and wind is the only problem I have had. I've proper sacked red stags at 400m with 105Amax and 243AI so I'm not believing the too small ideas. Joules are joules in my book. The extra pace had helped though with about 3100fps from the AI. Current 243Win is a work in progress and is still not the right gun for me in big country. I plan to run the 100g Sierra SPT this Spring-Summer and maybe trial the 100g GK as well.
    muzr257 and Timmay like this.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds
