[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 2434056, member: 313"] I've been shooting 22-243AI and 22-243 (plain) for many years. They are both extremely accurate and rather addicting once you get started. The 22-243 is easily made by just running 243 Lapua cases into a 22-243 die. I've got Redding dies but I'm sure others are available. An 8" twist will get you all that you need out of this cartridge. A faster twist will allow you to shoot bullets over 85gr; if that interests you. Most of my shooting has been done with bullets between 75-82gr with my 8" twist. Powders around the burn rate of RE 23 work great. I've shot a ton of groundhogs out to 1,000yds with this cartridge. It's a lot of fun. [/QUOTE]
