Sorry, I got the impression you hadn't actually weighed it. Did you try the false advertising angle? If worse comes to worse, call a lawyer. You might be able to get someone to take the case for free (they get X% of the winnings as well as lawyer's fees if you win). I would hate to go that route, but they really should be a lot closer than 1 lb. on their weight claim. That is a 15+% increase over their claim.

My guess is it wasn't on purpose, per se, they just hadn't updated the weights from last year's specs, as the only thing that changed was the stock, not the model #s. That being said, they should correct their error on the web site immediately and make right their wrongs. IMHO.

Took Advantage of Lifes Mulligan
All about shot placement. Badly placed .308 will be just as bad as a badly placed .223. Plenty of deer killed with .223 and .243 where its legal. Just get good ammo and you're good to go, imo. But of course whatever you're comfortable with - there's a reason I prefer .308 myself, of course. But I think .243, with a little bit of prep time, is plenty fine for deer.

No question .243 is good for deer. But with elk it takes much better shot placement. There is more fudge room/knock down power with a .308. It will perform better through bone, cause a larger wound channel, and more secondary trauma than a .243....but enough about that. Didn't mean to hijack the thread.
