RE: 243 wssm
Sorry to derail the tread slightly. I have a 25 wssm. Crunched all the numbers and the 25 was just a whole lot better than the 243 wssm in every respect I could think of. Personally I would not have gotten it if not for the AR. The 25-06 is a whole lot more plentiful. It is a very good cartidge though and has provided a lot of big game for the table. If you are considderering a wssm buy up enough brass to get you through until you get tired of it. I really doubt any of them will be around in 20 or 30 years. There are adequate chambers for no AR platforms that will give you about the same results in a factory chambered rifle with plentiful ammo.
