I have a stainless 700 SA that currently is a 243. It does not get used a whole lot. I think it will be my next donor for a build but what should I build???
I already have a 7mm-08, 338FED, 223 (7 twist) and a 30-06. I was thinking one of the more modern cartridges like a 6mm Creed or have another 338Fed built. Hmm... I wonder if anyone has necked up the Creed case to .338? What are some other ideas? What are the particulars of the existing rifles? Be specific,including stock,mounting system and optic. Hint. If making 338 Fed brass stumps you,it's uphill both ways and a slippery slope. Hint............

The 6 BR or something on that case can be fun. Have a 25 BR AI. Scary accurate. I let kids and women use it. Has been deadly. Low muzzle blast and no recoil to speak of. Everyone has tried it wants it.
GreggH This. Love my 6BR's. Very easy to load for and consistent....

6mm/22-250. Almost a 243, feeds better, more efficient, easy to load, great barrel life, plenty of room in the magazine. Great cartridge.

The Schofield Kid: Yeah, well, I guess they had it coming.

I've never had a 243 Win bobble,whether Self Shucker,Trombone,Lever or Turnbolt and a 6-250 is simply fhuqking STUPID. Hint..................

6mm/22-250. Almost a 243, feeds better, more efficient, easy to load, great barrel life, plenty of room in the magazine. Great cartridge. 240NMC or 6XC. 105-108gr bullets at 2900-3000fps. Been running a 240NMC for 15 years out to 1200yards. Uses 22-250 brass and fire forming loads shoot as accurately as formed. The Creedmore is the “new” version of the old song.
