Mr_Logic 5 Posted May 17, 2009 Report Share Posted May 17, 2009 I've not got load data for you (but head for Hodgdon's website - assuming you've got a 22 inch barrel, take their figures and remove 200fps) but I'd be using 55gr Nosler or 70gr Nosler ballistic tips. Or Sierras, too. Sierra have a good reloading guide for 243, which uses a 22in barrel - google for sierra reload data 243 and you should find it, it's a PDF. Quote Link to post
