WOW sure are alot of catagories!!
Great job NITRO, Pop the top on one of those bottles of wine and have at it. You sure do deserve it. Then when you got a good buzz on start shipping wine to my house!! LOL.

Any way....... I ordered a new rifle about 8 days ago maybe a little longer. I was getting pretty antsy for it to arrive. I e-mailed the company last night. Today the e-mail read that my rifle was shipped out today! Yeeeeee Hawwwwww!

Can't wait to hold it. It's a varmit rifle with the heavy barrel ( a Remington 700 in 243)

I'll post a pic when it gets here, should be about three days or so!

Yes there are a lot of categories here now. Probably messages will get lost a little in them at the moment. But I set them up for the future for use as the site grows. I started setting up a few just to begin with and then thought, hell I might as setup all the ones I intend to eventually straight away.

Your heavy barrelled .243 in Remington 700 sounds like a great project. So tell me what do you intend to use it for? Varmints at long range? Targets?

Big Five shots a .243 a lot.

I've never owned a .243 or 6mm but I've always thought they are great calibres for small and medium sized game in Australia. Can be used for varminting, great for kangaroos, goats and pigs, perfect for Hog deer, good for smaller deer such as Fallow. Not much recoil and usually nice and accurate.

Hope it shoots great when you get it.

Hey Nitro,
Bought the 243 for coyote hunting, need something that would flatten a yote out to 400yrds or better.

A lot of folks here use them on deer, but because some deer here can run up around 300 lbs and bear a whole lot bigger, when it comes to this hunting I'm a 308 cal man all the way.
