[QUOTE="sambo3006, post: 254886, member: 2740"] Well, I went with neither cartridge. I found an Encore barrel in .243 Win at a good price and couldn't pass it up. I think it will fit the bill for deer out to 300 yds with a good bullet and should have flat trajectory with manageable recoil. I already have brass, dies and bullets so it makes sense. I really hadn't considered it but was impressed by the possiblilities of it when I checked out the ballistics from a 15" barrel. It would be a bit overkill but if I wanted to shoot smaller critters I could run the 55 br BT at 3600 fps according to Hogdgon. That ought to make some red mist! [/QUOTE]
