RL .243

[kcdusk]

My brother in law is a gun nut. Went down the range at Christmas time and his hunting rifle is a .243 (goat, rabbit, fox, deer).

I was shooing a basic .22 at 50 meters and then 100 meters. At 100 meters, it took me 6 shots to figure out i was falling a bit short. Adjusted, and then hit a twirler (about the same size as the bottom of a coke can) 4 out of 5 times.

Anyway. The .243 shot at the twirler which is 8mm steel. And punched right through it from 100m. So although only a .22 or close to it, this thing would put a person down in real life, yes? And a car door would not be something to hide behind!
