[QUOTE="JohnCZ, post: 1657525, member: 69069"] 243 is a good light game calibre and it wasn't designed as a target cartridge, have owned a few and they have performed as expected. If heavier bullets are required I just use a 270, 308 or 300win. Haven't shot 6mm Creed but it seems that the advertising gurus have done their job just like they did for the 243 way back when. There are better target cartridges and infinitely better hunting cartridges if long actions don't scare you. If shooting steel with low powered cartridges are your thing I guess it'd be good, plenty of LR target shooters shoot it. When all of the 6mm wonder cartridges have been released, I'll take a 25-06 in the field every day. [/QUOTE]
