    Iv used two 18 inch 243s with factory 80gr Winchester for as long as Iv been hunting
    I have to burn thru it before I handload before I start a load
    It is just so easy to use, low recoil, suppressed
    I use a kimber Montana so it's as light as can be
    200m zero 30cm drop for 300m and 70cm for 400m

    I treat it like a 223 rather than a 308 (if that makes any sense) and it drops things like a hammer
