[QUOTE="UplandFreak, post: 1900516, member: 111854"] You can still shoot light fast bullets out of a fast twist 6mm. So once again there is no benefit of a 243 over a 6mm. Also, You need to run some comparisons - the 6mm outperforms the 6.5 CM out a long ways. I have had great luck with the 6mm on mulies, whitetails, coyotes, black bears,at those distances. Those 105gr bergers and 108gr eldms pack a punch. You can’t shoot those bullets in a factory 243 with slow twist rates. But like you said, your longest shots are 300 yards, so you don’t have to be as picky with your bullets. [/QUOTE]
