I' m torn between the .243 that has worked the last three years, and my .300 WM that I just worked up a handload for.
Most likely I' ll use the .243

The 7mmstw was pioneered by layne simpson in 1988 or 1989 if I remember correctly.I had my first one built in 1990.It was commercialized several years later by remington.
