Never seen an R or EG in the 243. Before I started accumulating 99"s, the first one I owned (1979)and traded off quickly was an F 50's model. Big mistake!
A few years later I started collecting 99's and was sorry that I got rid of the first F. Purchased one today and should be delivered next week. Hard to beat the 50's F's in any caliber. Now have the 300/ 250/ 243/ 284 (tang Safety cc), guess the group wouldn't be complete without the other cals.
"Man I need help" That is locating the other cals within my price range. GW
