AndyCM Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 thinking of getting one instead of of the 243 any one out there using one? I've used one for 18 months now - it's been excellent 120 & 140g noslers & Sierra's are very accurate - reloaded. Not bought any factory ammo, so can't comment on availability Roe & Fallow have just gone.....flop ! Cheers AndyCM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyCM Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 Ok, 120g & 140g Nosler ballistic tips & 140g Sierra gamekings with RL15 have worked well for me at 3,000 & 2,750- 2,800 odd Fps through a 24" 1:9 cheers AndyCM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macca Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 (edited) Hi, Brilliant round, more ballistically efficient than the 308 at the same bullet weight, seems to have less felt recoil than a 308. 139GN Hornady SST's shoot brilliantly. Mine is a Titan 6 weight is 7lb 10 oz with a 2-10x50 weaver on top. Cheers Edited January 24, 2010 by macca Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
