I have a Ruger M77 in .243 in my possesion again. I've been holding it for my sister-in-law, but my buddy has had it for over year to use hunting and I just got it back. I had only fired it about 10 times before I let him borrow it. I'm thinking about hunting with it. He said it was pretty good.
I may get to keep it. If I do, how is it compared to other calibers for hunting. I plan most of my shots, if any to be 200 yrds and under. I don't have a problem with accuracy, I'm an ok shot. My sholder can't take anything much bigger caliber wise. I'd prefer not to go over 30 cal rounds. anything close, thats descent?
I would prefer something thats auto loading, as oppose to bolt action like the Ruger. I know there's a multitude of options, but what would be worth my time to look at. I am looking, by the way. Any auto loader .243's I should look at?
