    Bill999 liked post by Flyblown On thread : Best light weight Stock and/or tactical chassis for hunting
    I would argue that the LR type chassis isn’t really practical for a carry rifle. But the Hunter version definitely is. A chassis for hunting needs to be minimalist. Love the pistol grip. There are...

    308mate I guess it boils down to if you want a light rifle, or reduce your total carry weight by 500g Cutting that out of the contents of a typical tramping pack is a piece of piss, and...

    I flip a coin :D The 243 is for meat hunting when I’m targeting smaller bodied animals (red yearlings/spikers, or fallow). The 308 is for anything else (stags in the roar, or open country where...

    Bill999 liked post by MB On thread : .17hmr vs .22lr vs .223 BEST FARM GUN?
