    sighting in a deer rifle at 200m is the way to go....

    hmmm intresting to hear your thoughts......

    if you boil it down yea theres not much difference,like 2" if that and tbh with any of the mentioned cal's.... you can't go wrong, see I'm someone who doesn't like recoil but I can manage it enough to shoot .8 groups at 200m with my 25-06... having a big long case from the 25-06 and the recoil of a 243 does feel empowering...

    as soon as I've paid for all my duckshooting stuff I'm grabbing a 6.5x55 CZ 550 FS mannlicher and a redfeild 3-9x40 or a 3-9x50 if possible.... that should do the trick as a no frills under 250m bush type rifle
