That's pretty impressive speeds.
I learnt to hunt with the stout little 243 so I still toy with idea of getting another one. I wish tikka would hurry up and bring the 1 in 8 .243 into NZ. I just assumed the 6mm creedmoore was the new improved version of the 243. But maybe I'm wrong. I have a 22-250 and a 7mm08 I'm thinking of selling and building some sort of fast twist 6mm. The do all caliber as they say. How does the 108 go on stags during the roar? Thanks for your input.

Barnard SM action AI mag and a 24" Trueflite barrel. Never shot a roar stag with the 108's but any shot into the chest will destroy heart and lungs so they would not go far.
ed just checked load data is 46 gr of Reloader 26 and and OAL is 2.83" in Lapua Brass.
