[QUOTE="B23, post: 1748581, member: 13222"] If you want to sling the heavies or just want whatever bullet you choose to go fast, I'd pick the 6-284. The 6-284 will easily shoot faster than the 243AI or the 6mm AI and do so without the extra hassle of fireforming. The 6-284 is super easy to load for and making brass is as simple as a one time pass through a 6-284 FL die or bushing die. The Rem 6mm suffers from having mediocre at best brass and with long, heavy for caliber bullets, it really needs to be used in a long action. The 243AI is a great cartridge as well, but gains so little when it's improved, for me, it just isn't worth my time to fireform. If you have your heart set on a 243AI maybe talk to Defensive Edge Rifles about having them build you their 243 Terminator. It's their version of a 243 Improved and you can buy already formed Lapua brass that is ready to go right from Shawn.
