[QUOTE="Kimber7man, post: 1656557, member: 11938"] I have differing viewpoint. 243 case length is 2.045” 6mm Creedmoor case length is 1.920”, allowing for a longer bullet length outside the case in the same length magazine, and maintains the 6.5 Creedmoor’s 30-degree shoulder. Testing has found this extends brass life, as well as giving more room in the shortened case. A. I would use a DBM with AICS mag for 243 to give more room for longer bullets. Advantage Creedmoor. B. Creedmoor is shorter case so can seat longer bullets out further in a factory BDL/ADL magazine, 243 can’t. Advantage Creedmoor. C. Creedmoor feeds great out of standard bottom metal same as 243.
