When I re-barreled my 243 I was convinced a 240 weatherby was the answer. After talking it over with gunsmith he pointed to the 6mm/06 as a better round to reload and easier to get cases.By the time I dropped the rifle off I was back to the 243 and have never regretted it.I never load full reloads in my rifles anyway so capacity would have been wasted in this instance.Out of a dozen rifles only the 260 is loaded to its full potential. I'm even looking for light loads in the 50 cal now so chasing the last fps is a waste of time unless you have a dire need for it.
