    I have a 243 with a 1/10 twist and it is a very effective little meat harvester. I generally don’t shoot beyond 300yd so a 6mmCM offers no real advantage for me, it wouldn’t put any additional meat in the freezer. There’s plenty of good bullets that work in a 1/10 (90eldx, 95 fusion, 95 nosler BT, 95sst etc.) and will serve you well
    Yeah that's good to hear, it's pretty much where my thinking is at now.
