JimT Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 My fiance sighted in her .243 today. Guns a Remington 710. While the action is rather horrible this thing is a pretty good shooter. I was suprised. I have never had all that good of luck with Federal ammo, but this rifle shoots the 100gr PowerShocks plenty good enough at 100 yards. Also checked the Stealth Cam and got this eight pointer on it. Pretty cool... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeramie Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 That will get the job done! I handload 100grn hornady BTSP's for mine. It will strike matches. The .243 kills em just as dead. Im not a fan of the 710 but for a hunting rifle they are a decent buy. I like the savage line for cheap hunting rifles but I cant completley turn my nose up at the 710. They can get the job done.

Stinger-Hunter Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 I feel your excitement. I just sighted in the ol' 30-06 for antelope hunting in Montana. Didn't shoot quite as tight as the targets above, but I seem to get in the zone when there is an animal in my sights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
