A 308 costing less than a .243! What kind of sense does that make? I'm not much of an AR guy, I never have liked that weapopn and it probably goes back to how crappy the first M-16 were, ruined me on the AR for life. When I went through boot camp we were qualifying with the M14, then in ITR, qualified with the M16. What we were given to use in boot camp were the older first versions and not what was being issued by then in combat, but it sure turned me off to the whole thing. Since I was officially a 5811 (MP) I got to keep my M14 and got a 12 gage pump for my "official" duties. An older Remington 870 with a mod kit from the "Navy boys" so it held a 20 round magazine. Had an Armor load me 3" magnums with 00 buck and a 7/8" SS ball bearing. Good out to 150 yards, but hell on barrels. Loaded a flechette round every so often in case things got intense. Some of the "older" guys had some kind of top magazine fed automatic, but I didn't like it as much.

I never have liked that round and it probabaly goes back to how crappy the first M-16 was, ruined me on the AR for life. I have bolt .243 rifles. I've also been picking up all those lonely boxes of 243 I keep finding at walmart and giving them a good home for the last 6 months. This was a no brainer for me.

In that case tell Ms. CWI I hope she gets sub MOA groups at 100! Pics and a review would be awesome too.

Just ask your friends if they'd rather play pitcher or catcher when it comes to the .243.
