[QUOTE="mrb1982, post: 1292664, member: 50419"] That is pretty much where I am at now. I have a 22-250 with the 14 twist which doesn't allow me to use any descent BC bullets for longer ranges. I don't shoot coyotes for hides, just predator control at my inlaws ranch. I am looking at a good 4-600 yard round for the most part, and maybe something that my kids could use to kill a deer at some point. I guess this is what I am thinking as far as pros and cons. 25-06 Pros-more range, better wind buck the longer you go, available in a Sendero cons-More recoil than a 243, more powder 243-Pros-less recoil, less powder, not quite as good but still descent wind buck. Cons-VLS is best option, not quite as good wind buck If I could get a stainless fluted 243 that I could put my own stock on, I think it would be a done deal. a 25-06 Sendero is nice, but if I could get a 243 Sendero(not possible) that would be great. I will have to do some thinking I guess. [/QUOTE]
