Yeah, I'm same height and about 5 pounds less than that, do I need to sell my 7-08 AND my 243 win?


I'm 6'7" and 375. And I'll turn 64 on Monday. If I started today, and burned my money, I couldn't do more with another cartridge than I did with a .243 before I was 30.




Families can be fed, tribes kept in meat, trophy walls covered and arks filled with creatures slain with the lowly 243 Winchester. Why we debate the usefulness of cartridges of greater caliber and velocity, I do not know.
