   i shoot a couple of Sav 99's and for a while had a Ruger 96/22m (22mag, and a Marlin 57M (22mag) The Marlin 57 was heavy and stable. The Ruger 96 was light and fast, great on goats at short range...

   I love my 358win in Sav 99 but with full power loads it would not be my first choice as a short range quick fire rifle, just too much recoil. For that the 243 is much nicer to use. Or look at the...

   My 2 cents, The 308 family (243, 260, 7M08 and 308 and the CM's ) with correct bullet selection will work out to 500 mtr. But you do need the higher BC bullets (definitely in the 6 and 6.5mm sizes)...

    Thanks trapperjohn, i missed that thread. I did a forum search on the hut name not on the road. Thanks guy's, 4wd Ute but I'm conservative with where i go as I don't have recovery gear or winch. Z

    243 with factory ammo would be fine for anything in the north island out to 300 mtr. If you get one with the new fast twist barrels and hand load then you are good to 500mtr. Again bullet...
