[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 4174631, member: 15054"] I looked up Hodgdon reloading data and compared 6 ARC to the .243 winchester. Both charts used 24" barrels and I picked many different bullets and seems the 6 ARC is much slower than the .243. Max loads in the ARC are sometimes not even as fast as the start load for the 243. Not a great comparison as the 243 will not fit a short action but if you do need a short action ya know what is available in the 243 a WSSM and you just cant keep up with that round with an ARC. I just need dead critter and the old tried and true .223 with a 55 V-Max does it every time for me. I thought years ago I needed a 100 plus dollar ABU fishing reel then it hit me. Fish are stupid and if I need a 100 dollar reel to catch one who is stupid now. I caught more fish on the "old" Zebco 33 and Penn #9 than any reels I have ever owned. [/QUOTE]
