[QUOTE="j_22250, post: 184625, member: 9561"] i am in the process of building a 243ai on a rem. action. I talked to a guy from shilen who has been chambering rifles for 18 years i think, and he said that if he had to choose he would go with a plain jane .243 win. Don't really know how much this says for the guy, cuz he may not be a nut like some of us. If your gonna build on a short action go with the 243win or 243ai. Medium to long 6mm, 6mmai, or 6mm-284. The fact is there are so many that are just a hair better than others and it don't make pot what u shoot as long as you can hit the target. The 243win is already considered a barrel burnner and the amount of powder some others take to drive the bullet 100-300fps faster too me is unrealistic. Also i don't like long barrels 24" is plenty for anything out to 500yrds. The more powder u add seems like the longer the barrel has to be, but when shooting 600yrds or more i deffinetly see point.
