Hogger, Not that I have any objection, each to his own, and viva la differance. But, in this case (pun intended), I just hafta' ask: WHY??? What's wrong with the .243 Win? | ||

My wife shoots one of these. Excellent cartridge. For her, it is just that bit more pleasant than the 243, with little loss in performance. We didn't have a dedicated reamer, but used a 22/250 reamer to cut most of the chamber, and a separate reamer for the neck. So, the round we ended up with is a pure 22/250 necked up to 6mm. The shoulder retains its angle and position. Barrel is a 1:10 twist, and it shoots 65 and 70 grain bullets very well. Haven't tried anything heavier....we use the 243 for that. For dies, we are using a Redding 6/250 competition seater. To size the neck, a 22/250 bushing die, with a bush around the .260 level works just fine. I haven't had to push the shoulders back at all, but a 22/250 body die will work. | |||
