I use too years back and switched to .270 and after a few years switched to 6.5mmSwede.
Why is that?

When I started using the .243 years ago, It was mostlyhead shots and neck. I just didn't trust it on lung and heart shots. Than I started to use the .270 on lung and heart shots for many years. I had a friend back then that used a Mauser 6.5mmSwede and he convinced me on the 6.5mm. The 6.5mmSwede has a terrific BC and SD for the caliber that it is.
