[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 1556845, member: 1521"] Why 1000yds? Does it shoot at 300yds, or 600yds? If this is for competition, there are plenty of reasons it won't be competitive. If for hunting, then again, why a 243win for 1000yd hunting shots? 243win is a deer hunting cartridge. You can get within 600yds of deer, or it isn't hunting. If you endeavor to extend beyond that utility, with this cartridge, you better plan for a higher rate of barrel & brass replacements. And this is why it's not competitive. This is my opinion. That's all. I'm sure there is somebody out there that does odd things with a 243win. There is probably someone out there shooting 1kyds with 12ga slugs.. If I wanted 1kyd target shooting in 24cal, I'd go 6BR or 6Dasher. These are better designed for that purpose. [/QUOTE]
