[QUOTE="chadjamesr, post: 2843792, member: 126477"] As most people are saying, stay with the .243 if you already have all of the loading equipment and really don't want to change. The other calibers all require starting from scratch with little advantage in performance. As far as mag length rounds, just have the throat cut for your particular load so that you minimize bullet jump. I had a .243 AI and the only negative was the short barrel life. Other then that, it was extremely accurate and always out performed me. If you are going to change, consider powder availability. The 6GT is made for Varget and is really a competition round (not that there is anything wrong with that). The 6 Creed is more versatile and you can easily buy factory ammo if needed. [/QUOTE]
