[QUOTE="waxonagain10, post: 2831172, member: 68162"] I'm building what Winchester SHOULD have done when they created the WSM series of cartridges, I have appropriately named this wildcat: .243 LASER. In essence, it is simply a .243 WSM. In my opinion, Winchester missed an opportunity to create a superior ELR cartridge when instead of following the 300, 7mm, and .270 WSM with the same casing necked down to 6mm, they created the .243 WSSM instead. If you study the "Heavy for Caliber" offerings of high BC bullets over 100 gains currently available in this caliber, what it would reveal is that all they need to really show their potential is a little more velocity. This is something that the WSM case can provide. I'll keep you posted on this build. W. Palmer [/QUOTE]
