Re: So whats wrong with the .243 (pope gun) again??

What is the advantage of going to a wildcat calibre like the 6x250 or any other variant when a std calibre can achieve this. Because 243's are like assholes, everyone has one! some ppl like to have something that is less popular and therefor more "special". it's the same reason why we hat...

Re: Choices Choices

I'm surprised the 204 is considered by many to be not an option for roos and goats, I agree that 30-40grains is not enough for careless body shots but if you're not too far away and you can put one in the head then i'd shoot a goat size animal with one.

I was in the market for a LRPV in 204R cos i liked the idea of single shot, bull barrel, RB LP receiver etc. but i'm just not experienced enough to know what i'm doing so i ordered an 85 stainless varmint instead :(
Btw, what are the advantages of a dual port over the earlier left port only LRPV?

It's a top cartridge, don't worry about what they say. It will do fine on your foxes rabbits and cats, then if you want it will deal with roos very well too.
Factory ammo can be sought for about $20 a box and like it was said earlier it's easy to reload for.
