Default RE: .243 Hunting Question

X. There you go again picking the best possile load for the 243 and a bum load for the 30-06.


243.............500 yards 925. 100 grain bullet

30-06...........500 yards 1480 ME... 165 grain bullet.

When you compare, you must use bullets of equal SD or it means less than nothing. The 30-06 load is with a Barnes 165 grain bullet. Its also available in a factory load. The Barnes load for the 243 just shows 860 ME at 500 Yards but I gave you your pet load .
