    .243 vs hares/rabbis

    I've noticed a bit of talk lately of the .243 in a varmint capacity, tone was asking about it here, a few others sugesting it also. So...

    In the interests of practical accuracy and riflemanship (is that a word?) I took my deer gun out on some hares off my front deck the other evening. It's not exactly a varmint projectile, But I can vouch for the 100gr corelokt in that it will knock over our local armour-plated hares out to 230m (measured with the mile marker haha) Didn't post the pics of the rabbis as there wasn't much left of them.
    So heres the results of my amateurish venture into varminting:
