I didn't check any tables but I seriously doubt the 243 will shoot flatter than the 300 mag. also jag, what do you expect to hear, as I think the 243 makes perfect whitetail medicine,If I owned one I would certainly use it.
Check the load data yourself. .243 on average drops less at 400 and 500 yards. I don't lie.
I did check and the only .243 bullets shooting flatter are the 90 and 80 gr bullets. The 100 gr loads seem to drop more than the 150 to 180 in the .300 mag.
