[QUOTE="budlight, post: 1271551, member: 2939"] If you read up on the 6XC it states that it is easier on barrels and more efficient that 243 win because of 7 grains less powder capacity. I've found how to duplicate that with the 1000's range brass that I brought home. Lake city 308 win cases. I full length size them first to 260 rem and then 243. I then neck turn them to .272. neck interior & exterior turning perfectly centers the bullet for match or varmint shooting. The lake city and other 308 win brass has about 4 grains less powder capacity. I have a 9 twist barrel so 75 - 100 grain work fine. Just off the shelf Hornady 100 spbt's I have some range master verified 3.27 inch 10 shot groups at 600 yards not even trying hard or any special ladder testing. I never could do that with my 22-250 I quit bringing home 308 brass because I have too many! [/QUOTE]
