    How much experience have you had shooting at live game? Do you plan on reloading? Of the two options your looking at and the info you've given the 308 would be the safest bet. The 243 will probably...

    You probably put about 60 grains of FFFG down the barrel, after cleaning any oil out and depending of the twist, stuff a round ball with a greased patch or a greased 45 cal projectile down the...
