[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1748570, member: 87243"] Basically, a 6mm ai will have more energy than a .243 ai, and a 7mm-08 ai will have more energy than either of the 6mm cals. This can be scewed, say you use a 120 in the 7mm with a very low bc and a 100 in the 6mm with a very high bc, but the potential for each cartridge's max energy at 500 will go most energy 7mm-08 ai, then 6mm ai, and finally .243 ai. Whether you rechamber an existing gun or buy a new one depends on many things, how much barrel life is left on the current guns, accuracy, if you want an excuse to get a new gun, components you may already have on hand, etc. [/QUOTE]
