[QUOTE="msalm, post: 834774, member: 8863"] 6.5 Creed. 260 ballistics without intruding on the powder space due to the 2.850" mag length. 6.5X47 Lapua is a good one too but it's pretty spendy brass to be spittin' out of an AR. One thing you should mention is what do you want to do with it? Heavy 24" barrel or a lighter profile, fluted? A lot depends on your plans for use. 308 is a good all-around, 6.5's are great ballistically with enough juice for hunting, 338 Federal is another hunting round although shorter range. Also the 6mm Creed would be as good as the 243 but something different and allow the use of longer higher bc bullets without seating below the neck and less recoil with a great trajectory. Lots of options, just what do you want the rifle to do? [/QUOTE]
