Personally I think the 6mm Rem is a very underrated round and a bigger step up in performance from the .243 than most people think. Not that the .243 is lacking in any way. Somewhere in the velocity gap between the 2 rounds there is a threshold that is crossed. (Maybe its just me thinking too much)

This 6mm has been whacking antelope for me since high school. It's performance has been incredible.

Dog Hunter sorry about the Quote goof on this. Not sure what happened.

You can probably tell by my handle that the 6mm Remington is one of my favorites as well! I've taken lots of deer, antelope, and one spike bull with my 6mm over the years. Now my son has started with it as well. He got his first elk last year with his 6mm Remington and a 90 gr. Nosler E-tip at 350 yards. ONE SHOT and she went about 20 yards and dropped. The bullet exited her off-side shoulder! Those E-tips and Partitions make the 6mm perform bigger than it is.
