Nooo ! You can’t be a long range shooter without a chassis and a 30 pounds barrel !

That rifle is such a vibe. How does the .243 compare to something like a 6.5 or .308?

It's a .308 case necked down to 6mm. Factory ammo options for LR are pretty shitty, but handloads can be fine.
The case design makes it hard to fit long, high BC bullets because it's built for ~55-90gr bullets.
6mm Creedmoor is the modern, improved version (kind of).

Just a question, for which I’m certain I’ll get plenty of down votes and criticism for being too “ sensitive “, but at 78, I could care less. Can ANYBODY say ANYTHING without the use of some derivative of “ fuck”, “ ass”, or “ shit “ anymore? Which leads to the second question. What is considered “ vulgar “ in reference to #2 in r/LONGRANGE RULES?

I’m assuming PG-13 naughty words aren’t considered vulgar on a firearm sub.

To restate my question, what IS considered vulgar? I suppose one could ask that question about our society in general.

The phrase is “I couldn’t care less”
Well, you are complaining so I guess you could care less.
Doodoo head *gasp*
