    Well said, Tahr. Jakewire, you titled your thread " why the 243 is ideal for the elderly"< then never gave us a clue why you think this is so. And it's bullshit anyway. I"ve just turned 65 and Know I don't have nearly what I had even 20 years ago, but next week I'll be picking up my new x bolt in 7mmrm. I'm not even a little bit interested in a .243. That calibre is probably even more relevant to a latte drinker than 7mm08. I drink double shot long black and recoil holds no fears. and I"m already half-deaf from yeaars of driving American trucks, so I also piss on muzzle blast. So although I don't much appreciate your patronizing attitude, I probably agree with you in principle. . 243 is puny and underpowere for what folks expect of it. but maybe okay for smaller or not-so strong shooters. But not for this elderly fart. No argument from me, but fark you very much.
