From the cartridge perspective, if you can get the right twist is the 243WSSM would be my choice.

243wssm
Good twist will send those 105's and 109's (115's if they still make them) down range real smooth and you can push them to heavy speeds.

a 243wssm is a good roud but it is also a barrel burner,I have one and it shoots well out to a 1000 yrds, but if I had it to do over I would have just spent a little more money and done a 6 BR,it will push a 95 grain berger 3000 + and the barrel life is alot longer, and your only using about 30 grains of powder, put a break on them and you can watch them hit. they are a sweet shooting round.

I have a .243 WSSM in a Winchester Stealth. It likes the 95 grain Berger, good. I head shot a coyote at 626 yards. The longest shot before that was a head shot doe at 602 yards. I will shoot out this barrel and have it rebarreled to .243 WSSM, again.
i was thinking of getting a AR10 in 260 rem, but the 243wssm upper on my AR would be alot cheeper...
to bad they dont have a 6.5 wssm
6.5 Heaton- just run an expander ball through 25wssm brass and shoot.
