I like to shoot steel at ranges from 300-500 yrds when I can and I have a mosin nagant and an ar15 (16.5") that are both capible but while I am in the midst of a debate with myself over whether to get the 243 or 260 (1st) I want to know if I buy a cheap rifle like a handi rifle or something to have as a backup hunter/long range plinker.
The .223 is cheap and an good hunter out to 250-300, targets out to 500...
The .243 is more expensive but better at both...
What to you think? Both have several pros and random opinions help with decisions...
