Easy, the sierra 100grn game king @3000fps if 1-10 though if 1-12 will only stablise flat base bullets over 90grn.

In what way does it shit over a .243 ?
I would expect there to be a small advantage . . What's your experience ?

On average around 100fps for a given bullet weight, getting a chrony and drop validated 3000fps with 100gn Hornady Sp out of a 20" .243, so it's all a bit relative really. Out to say, 350yds, nothing in this country walking away from that. Same sort of difference as with 7mm08 vs 280 Remington.
