I am guessing the 6 Creeds are outselling the 243, not the 6mm Rem. I always thought the 6mm rem was a superior cartridge to the 243, but it really shines in a long action. There is definitely a prejudice against long actions for some odd reason.

I am actually building a 6mm Rem right now. Just waiting on the barrel. It is a 7.5 twist and is going on a long action. I've had several 243's in my life, but for some reason they all seemed goofy with regards to pressure issues.
