Thomas JonesWitch .243 ?
have been thining about getting a .243. or a or a 6mm Rem. There are three in town I have seen that have my attention.
1 is a FN factory origional with a 4X leupold. Its the FN with the side safty. and the asking price is 600.00, I think 550 would get it. Another is a Old browning sako I like it a lot but at 700.00 asking price , probably 650 wold get it, it seems a little steep to me.
Another I saw Yesterday is a CZ american new in the box 500.00.
I am leaning Twords that one cause the test target is one raged hole and not very raged either. The only thing is ir has a detacable magazine, and I really don't care for loosable part on a hunting rifle. But it is a well made magazine and It locks up nicley, witch one would you want ? ...tj3006

SnellstromOut of those three I might say yes on the CZ although I'm not a big fan of a clip on a hunting rifle either. The fact that it has a really good test target with it speaks volumes to me cuz I like my hunting guns to shoot well.
Good luck, half the fun is in the shopping!

Paul BWell, unfortunately, I'm prejudiced.

I'd go for the FN.

Thomas JonesThey are all good options, and I can't go wrong with any of them. If all goes well I think I will put the CZ on layaway next saterday. If it gets sold out from under me I'll mabye do somthing else...tj3006
