[QUOTE="baydog, post: 908706, member: 76072"] i know for sure the 6mm is a great gun and the 243. About 20 years ago a buddy of mine that I grew up with, we went and bought guns one day together. They were Remington model sevens. He was waited on first by the same guy we still buy guns from today and he got the 243 when he was done the guy that run the gun shop said ok do you want to be just like your buddy and I said no! I want to be just a little bit better and he said ok you're getting a 6mm !!.. We really trust this guy so I just said ok and it was a great move. My 6mm would out shoot his 243 by about 50 yards hehehe!!..What i meant by small gun is i have a 30-30 and a 308 and a 243 a 7mm mag sendero and a sendero 300 RUM on it's way . We all know what the 30-30 is capable of, great brush or in the woods gun for 100 yard woods shots and the 243 or 308 to me without really getting down to the nitty gritty 200 yards and those guns loose knock down power and start to drop but are lighter and pleasant to shoot and carry around, but the 240 looks like it could shoot a little further and have more energy on the other end but still have all the things that make the 243 and 6mm great guns, I'm not sure because I don't own one...yet... But I really don't know so i got to ask , does a 240 and 243 and 6mm use the same bullet??..Sorry for such a knuckle head question but I really don't know and that would be a deal breaker for melightbulb [/QUOTE]
