[QUOTE="VinceMule, post: 2481829, member: 122164"] Big Don, I use 14g of Bullseye and fill the case up with COW, a tuft of paper towel. I clean the barrel when fire forming every 25 rounds, leave the bore wet with penetrating oil, FREE ALL. The 243 AI is very, very accurate fire forming loads for hunting, you will loose about 100 fps. IMR 7828, R#22 is what we use with the 100g Hornady BTSP for deer and hogs, 3200 fps. WARNING: if you use a custom rifle, do not automatically assume that you can use Lapua or Norna brass in the chamber. European brass in 243 Win is made larger in the web, CIP Specs. American brass is made smaller in the web, SAAMI spec. If you are using a factory rifle, then the chambers are generous to where Lapua brass maybe accommodated in your chamber. Many get busted from having a chamber too small for the Lapua brass, an expensive lesson. [/QUOTE]
