[QUOTE="Hard rock, post: 2690425, member: 116620"] A lot of folks don’t realize the 243 win vel and ft lbs of energy was advertised out of a 24 in barrel , when the majority of factory rifles where 22 in barrels , mod 88 win mod 100 win mod 99 sav . and most bolt actions.Colorado had a minimum of foot lbs of energy required for their state . It nearly made the 257 Roberts obsolete that was a better cartridge. Their marketing made the 243 win sound better than the 257 Roberts. Like I said earlier I’m not trying to criticize the 243 , facts are facts. I shoot and have them all. [/QUOTE]
