I say let her kill it with the 223. You won’t have to worry about finding or making reduced recoil loads and you already have a proven system that doesn’t recoil. Unless there is some other reason for not wanting to use the 223.
Well the 77 tmk comes pretty highly recommended out of a 223 for the same big game critters so I thought there had to be a bullet in 243 that would do it all.
For years I’ve shot deer with the 95 grain sst and seen a lot of others shot with the same bullet as well and have seen impressive results. But after reading the 223 77 tmk thread. Which I used this year on 6 deer. I’m trying to find the best all around 243 bullet. Apparently the sst doesn’t...
I just turned 21 yesterday and I want to buy a suppressor I found they had the one I’m looking at for 349.99. If someone else has experience with this retailer I’d be very happy to hear about it thanks!
for someone buying there first suppressor in a month would the evo be fine or should I pony up and get the scythe because it’s that much better. This will be the only center fire rifle suppressor I plan on buying.
If your using ar mags 73 eldm is a solid choice I took two deer with those this year before switching to tmk and they did fantastic if not using ar mags the 75 all the way to the new 88 eldm should work depending on your velocity wants and desires and mag length specs
I have a ruger american ranch that’s 16 inches and I like it but I don’t at the same time. It’s super easy to move around in tight spaces like a deer stand but incredibly loud since I don’t have a suppressor. You could also get more velocity with a longer barrel. Just some things to think about.
That’s very odd you say that about the sst. Not saying you are wrong just saying it’s strange because I have shot at least 20 deer with sst and seen a lot more than that shot with them bc everyone in my family uses 243 with sst and I punched both shoulders on almost every deer and never had...
My dad wants a 223 compact rifle he’s decided on the ruger american but he wants a compact stock. I have a ruger american ranch stock which is a compact that takes ar mags. He doesn’t want ar mags. Can I swap the mag attachment on the ranch with the mag port on the standard model that takes the...
223 or 243 or 6.5 creedmoor you can shoot tanks or eldms from the 223 eldx or sst or 108 eldm from the 243 or 140 eldm from 6.5. Tikka as the rifle hands down.
