LJ, I shot the new rifle on T-Day...Wow, what a wonderful Piece of modern engineering! I hit the bullseye dead ceneter from 50 yards, just off (2") from 100, and six inches low and left fron 150...And I haven't taken a shot with anything but a B-B gun since 1982!
The .243 is perfect for me, a little kick but not too much for my shoulder. I highly recommend it. I have fond memories of my Winchester 94, but this rifle has so much more range...
