[QUOTE="Flintlock shooter, post: 2826849, member: 105834"] As mentioned already, you might like to look at 6XC. It gets near 6CM speeds but also gets a lot more barrel life, which is also why I wouldn't go with the .243/243AI. This past weekend I shot a match with my 6XC and the barrel has over 2700 rounds on it and has only lost about 30fps since new. Of the other 2 barrels I have for it one has over 2200 rounds and the other over 2600. All three barrels still have extreme accuracy. Alpha Munitions make great brass for this cartridge. Another consideration could be 6SLR. It gets much better barrel life than .243. I competed with this cartridge for 5 seasons. If you'd like more info, please reach out and I'll answer any questions you have. [/QUOTE]
