Nothing shoots flatter than the .243 using 55gr balistic tips.

The 25.06 is far superior on deer sized game & with lighter bullet weights it shoots much faster & flatter for varmitts.

I bet the 30-06 with a 55gr bullet shoots as flat orflatter than the .243.

ummm the 30-06 accelerators push a 55 grain bullet around 4,080 fps your 243 with a 55 grain bullet pushes around 3,800 fps. you do the math

yep zrex is the guy that went to alaska and killed a 1000 lbs kodiak with his 243..........
him and his 243 is kinda like a fungis at first its irritating but after awhile he begins to grow on ya, anymore its quite entertaining and quite funny to read his BS posts about the 243.

I don't have my loading books with me but I bet the 50 BMG pushing a 750gr bullet is flatter than a .243. It will also kill an animal a mile away. The recoil is about the same as a .243 also. Can the .243 kill an animal a mile away? I don't think so.

The ballistics show the 55 gr bullet out of the .243 to have 27 inches of drop @ 500yds with a 200yds zero, no the 220 swift cant do that no the 22-250 cant do that nor the -06 accelerator. but the .243wssm wins with the same bullet it has 25 inches of drop.
