WINCHESTER ~ 43 ~ .218 BEE

The parent and grandparent cartridges of the .218 Bee are the .25-20 and .32-20 respectively. The Bee holds a performance slot in between the .22 Hornet and the .222 Remington. In that role it makes a very good account for itself as a pest control, varmint, and small game hunting cartridge. The Winchester 43 is a little brother to the Model 70, built to be a price point rifle to capture the need for a popularly priced varmint rifle. They were surprisingly accurate, posting 1 MOA groups at 100 yds by some accounts. This one is in good shooting shape, and ready to take care of business.
