Question 243

my wife proved a 243 is a all around hunting rifle, she used a 85 grain solid copper bullet... dropped her elk where it stood at 200+ yards.. if i was beside her when she was going to shoot i would of said you are to far for that gun.. when i heard her shot walked up and she told me where she aimed and we walked to the elk her shot was right where she said... so fulled me.. won't ever make fun of the 243 ever again...sorry had to leave for a moment grinding up elk burger mmm mmmm m .. what i was getting at is you don't need a big expensive gun!! i bought her this 243 for $100.00 in bad shape redid stock and reblued 3 weeks ago for her x-mas present. just to get her out there never expect this kill.main thing get out there have fun and enjoy yourself..no need for a expensive and costly trip an equipment!!!! just have fun and HAVE A NICE DAY!!!!!!!!!
