+1. They cover pretty much everything apart from really big stuff.
I'm now tossing up between a 243 or an O/U 12 gauge....

I'm leaning towards the .22LR version with 20" sporter barrel and tactical aesthetic stock (Boyd's stock I believe), only downside is that version doesn't have sights so I'll have to scope it out of the box...and I have no experience with scopes at ll lol! which rings, how to sight them in etc.
