what is the most accurat bullet for a 243 savage?
922139
If you mean a Savage chambered for .243 Winchester, depends. Some shoot better with a light bullet, some prefer a heavy one. Different brands shoot differently, too. I'd go with handloads for accuracy. Float the barrel and bed the receiver, too.\n\nSavage is an ugly rifle, but the suckers shoot great.

Yahoo Answers is a good place to get the latest spiff about celebs or yoghurt. Pretty tough to get handloading data here! \n\nNonetheless, I just checked my Hodgdons 2004 Manual. The highest they go for a .45 LC is a 360 Grain, Lead Flat Nose, with a gas check. Starting load 19.5gr of H4227. H4227 is considered a slow pistol powder, or a very fast rifle powder. Look here:  http://www.hodgdon.com/\n\nI also checked my Hornady book and the heaviest bullet they show is a 300 gr Hollow point/XTP. For that they start with IMR 4227 or MP5744 which both yield 1,000 fps.\n\nBoth manuals warn that the load is far above safe pressures for .45 Colts or replicas. It is only for Rugers or Thompson Center, but Hornady says that it should be just fine for a Marlin 1894-S Rifle. Don't forget a heavy crimp. The recoil will walk the bullets right out of the case. \n\nYou must be building a load for 200 meter steel silhouettes. That or griz.\n\nI suggest that you join Dr. Boren's Handloading list on Yahoo. It is a great list -- good information and good stories, too!

I would look for a forensics specialist not related to your local law enforcement. The .338 is USUALLY a magnum cartridge, with LOTS more power and damage than what would come from a Winchester 30/30. If a person was shot with the 338 it would be WAY more traumatic than with the smaller round. The difference should be obvious to anyone with gun shot wound experience.\nThere are some older 33 cal rounds that might create a wound channel similar to the 30/30 but I can't believe a .338 win mag would.\nGood luck\nD

Bound's hubby here:\n\nPersonally, I would avoid the new generation of Short Magnums, Super Short Magnums, and Ultra Magnums ... for two reasons ... first, the availability of ammo (especially near deer camps) and second, the designers intend these new rounds to replicate the performance of the original magnums in a shorter cartridge/action. \n\nI would strongly suggest a .30-06 Springfield or .270 WInchester for your hunt. With skill and practice, the .270 is sufficient gun for elk ... as long as the rifleman knows his limitations. The .30-06 should be the standard you go for. Any good rifle will do the job with the .30-06. Look for a Remington, Winchester, or Browning ... any of these rifles will be very reliable and affordable. Do not get cheap on a rifle and/or scope if this rifle will be either for a hunt of a life-time, or depended upon to put meat on the table for years to come!\n\nGood luck!

If you are allowed to shoot varmints with a semi-auto the Ruger 10/22 magnum is a good choice. A box of 50 shells is $6-$8.\nThe magnum has more range than the .22lr and is a lot cheaper to shoot than center fire ammo.\nWith practice shots to 150 yards and farther are possible. On the 22lr shots to 100 yards are about it's limit.\n10/22's are easy to upgrade with heavy barrels, new trigger groups and fancy stocks.

.308, 7.62x39 are ok rifle cartridges for defense, 12 gauge buckshot is a lot safer/more deadly in a home environment though.  10mm/40 S&W/45 ACP are all fine pistol cartridges, 9mmx19 is a little underwhelming in my opinion.  As far as cheap goes, go for a SKS (7.62x39) and a 12 gauge remington 870 shotgun.  You can get both of these for about $425 total.  A good handgun is gonna cost you quite a bit more, don't buy the cheap stuff like kel-tec, you will be dissapointed.  Buy a brand name like S&W, Kimber, Para Ord., ect.

I'm not sure there is any that exist, as far as what a person could carry.\nThe USAS-12 and MK3A1 Jackhammer are the best known autos. MK3A1 fires 240 rpm, which also the drum magazine can be removed and affixed to a detonator to be used as an anti personnel mine.\nThen there's the AA12 which has a rpm of 300.\nI'm no expert but I honestly don't think you'll find a 12 gauge that can fire that fast without ripping your shoulder off/extreme barrel rise. And since shotguns fire shot/fletchettes/whatever and useless at long range, I don't see any viable reason why they would make a shotgun that a person couldn't ideally use.

Bound's hubby here: \n\nFirst, remember the PA law that requires the use of manually operated firearms... no semi-autos. This leaves you with two styles of handgun, revolvers and single shot pistols. Keep in mind your typical shot will be at about 40-50 yards, you will need to be able to hit a 6 inch target consistently at your maximum distance. \n\nIn revolver .357 Mag is the absolute minumum to use. A .41 or .44 Mag or a .45 Long Colt would be better. \n\nIn single shot pistols (the Thompson Center Contender) any rifle cartridge barrel could do, but I would suggest the .30-30 barrel. You will get close to the same performance as a .30-30 rifle in a handgun. \n\nGood luck.

I think these are all the model you're looking for if not the caliber.\n\nhttp://www.genitron.com/REV-SA-XD-357/SA-XD-357.html\nhttp://www.genitron.com/360/360SA-XD.html\nhttp://thearmedcitizen.com/gunpages/xdcomp.htm\nhttp://www.sightm1911.com/lib/review/XD-9_Tactical.htm\nhttp://willtoexist.com/2006/02/anyone-fired-this-beauty\nhttp://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0BQY/is_2_48/ai_81477144\nhttp://www.defensereview.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=788

It depends on how much damage you want to do to the meat (not the animal) and how accurate you are.  A smaller, faster bullet, such as the 30-06, conveys a lot of hydrostatic shock that ruins some of the meat.  If you do your own reloading, and experiment with your reloads, then a 30-06 will work for you.\n\nA larger, slower bullet, such as the .308, makes a larger exit wound, but since the bullet is traveling slower, there is not as much ruined meat.\n\nI use an 8mm (8x57 IRS) for my hunting.  I am currently hunting in Germany where I regularly shoot Roe Deer and wild boar.  I will stack that caliber up against anything out there, and will use it next year on my elk hunt in CO.

The Thompson Center Encore is pretty good.  We auctioned one off for a DU banquet.  It was 3 guns in one, ML, 25-06, and a 12 ga turkey gun.

The most effective with least cost and training is a single shot shotgun. \n\nThey can be had brand new for under 100 dollars, used for 50 dollars.\n\nAfter basic familiarization with this firearm you will be confident in its effectiveness and ease of handling.

Federal HYDRA-SHOK 147 grain. \n\nNow, you need to make sure it works and feeds well and shoots fairly accurately in you own weapon, just like they all said. If it does, you have selected a powerful 9mm round with superior stopping power and proven reliability that is commonly available at most shops. No point in choosing an ammo you can't find. \n\nI recommend you stock up and quick. Nasty Nancy Pelosi will be taking that pistol away from you real soon if she gets her way.

As with any "what is the best" it depends what you want to do.\n\nIf you just want to punch holes in things and you aren't bothered by what the holes do then a 223/5.56x45 will be cheaper to feed than any of the alternatives. The most common of those is the AR-15 and it's many clones... of which I have four.\n\nThe G36 is certainly a more modern and a better design than the AR-15. Sorry to all the old soldiers out there, but it's not a 'great' design, it just works OK.\n\nYou might like to take a look at a Sig556 too. \n\nIf you want to make more noise and have a round that will stop deer reliably then have a look at a 7.62,  the FN-FAL is the world favorite quality 7.62x51 battle rifle, the Sig550 and the Galil (I forget the variant today) are also very good. \n\nI'd go with H&K or Sig.
