			You have a .243Win. so that'll eliminate the need for one of the faster and longer range .22 centerfires.  Normally I might suggest a .17Remington, but I won't due to the heartaches I've had with mine in terms of consistency.  At the risk of sounding like yesterdays shooter I'd recommend a .222Remington.  It's marvelously accurate, won't wake the dead, and is farmer friendly. 
Most of the areas I hunt for woodchuck are much smaller today than in the past.  Noise is a factor.  If farmer Brown has his stock in the fields he's not apt to appreciate your wanting to hunt his property with a loudenboomer rifle.  Just one mans opinion.  Best wishes.
