I'd like to get another 6mm but maybe a 6x47L. Still nothing at all wrong with the 243Win and there's a good reason it's often suggested as a good first or even only rifle to get.
    I’d be keen on a 6br before the x47L

    I have all the 6 and 7 mm BR dies and brass here
    A big fast bullet beats a little fast bullet every time
