I don't know about most ?'s, but it will fit in the standard AR10 mag, just like a .308. As for recoil, it's almost nonexistant in the single .243 I've shot. That was a Browning A-Bolt. If it's not really there in a bolt gun, it's certainly not there in semi-auto. Accuracy is about on par with a .308, although not as good at the long ranges due to bullet weight. Price is about the same as .308 factory loads, but I don't think there's any surplus for it...I can't think of any military weapon that is chambered in this caliber.
HTH! brouhaha |

There are a few Armalites in the area and they appear to be quite accurate. There is a fellow here who has one chambered in a 243 Win, I think it is called an AR10T I have seen this fellow shoot quite often and he is very good, I have witnesssed .50 inch groups at 300 yards with this particular Armalite. In fact I have a rather nice precision rifle I am going to get him to shoot as I know it shoots way better than I can shoot it.
Have a nice day,Rabon.... |

Last I heard, DSA was going to come out with a .243 FAL sometime within the next year or so.
