I was looking through the 10th edition of Cartridges of the World when I came across a warning about the .243 Winchester. This is an exact quote found on page 25.
Editor's note: The 243 has garnered a reputation among ballisticians for erratic performance. Handloaders should keep this firmly in mind.
Is there any truth this? Has anyone here had any problemns reloading for this round. Many years ago I had a rifle chambered for this. I reloaded for it, but not that much. I don't recall any problems.
I am looking to get a new deer rifle. This is one chambering I am considering. But if there are problems with it, I'll look elesewhere.
