I have more optics than guns, so I'm on the prowl for a couple of additions. I don't reload (maybe one day), so I try to stay with the more commercially available calibers. I want a wood stock 243 with some character marks that I can love on (IE tinker with) and a longer range hunting rifle that can I can start to learn to shoot 400 yards with - probably a 270 to keep it simple. We set up a 400 yard range on our hunting lease this summer. I've never shot at anything past 177yds - paper or critters, the 177yd was a good sized feral hog - headshot with 30-06 165gr was pretty devastating.
