Default RE: How the .243 stacks up

There are many other 7mm"s besides the Magnum's. The 7x57 Mauser and 7MM-08 very clearly fit in the tables above. You need to add in Momentum and bullet frontal area to complete the camparison. This because Momentum and bullet weight and sectional density are as important to energy as velocity is. This will also determine the penetration. However as far as you went it looks ok.
