Been thinking about a upper/rifle in 243 WSSM. Looking for some firsthand experience. How is feeding? Grouping? Looks like they can only be done in bull barrel? Would really like something a little more trim for a calling rifle. Can't decide between this or a 6WOA. What are your thoughts?

Mike has a round thats 6mm thats a bit more than the WOA too... I tend to call my 6woa a 243 short as its not as fast... but works fine to 200 yards.

I have a Dtech on the list, I've heard and read enough about them and my smith, WOP, suggests them for the wssm rounds and says Mike is a superb smith period...

Others here have Dtech uppers and will chime in.

There'a a lot of guys on the WSSM zone running standard and wildcat upppers from DTech. They seem pretty happy with the accuracy.

I have an older OLY upper in 25 wssm. Love it. I'm thinking of having the barrel fluted to cut weight on it tho.

I hate escalators. I slipped and fell down the steps for an hour and a half.
