[QUOTE="rscott5028, post: 649717, member: 24624"] Have you considered leaving it as a 243 or 243AI and putting on a 1:7.5" twist barrel to run the 115 DTAC bullets? I developed a 308 load for a friend using Berger 175 OTMs fed from the AICS magazine. He has a suppressed 1:10" twist, 20" barrel. Groups are excellent. He hasn't taken it past 500 yds yet. The 175's appear to have a slight edge at long distance according to the ballistics calculator. ...at least for targets. I don't have JE's experience. So, I'm not sure if that translates to the real world. But, we'll see soon enough. -- richard [/QUOTE]
