    243 Winchester vs the 6mm Creedmoor: Is one better than the other? If you were born less than 20 years ago you may have not heard of the 243 Winchester, and if you are over 50 years old you may not know the 6mm Creedmoor exists. Let’s examine the differences between the two, "by the numbers".

    243 Win. I am in Canada and finding 6mm Creed would be like finding an honest politician here! Pretty rare but not impossible. I am a hunter and I run a 243 with a standard twist.

    Great video, I kind of suspected this but it’s great you guys confirmed and taught me a few additional things too. I coyote hunt and deer hunt in East TN. Deer hunting is very rarely more than 100 and 300 is a long way for coyotes. My 243 will shoot 75 grain bullets 1 1/2” high at 100 that puts it 2” low at 250. Without adjustment my 100gr deer cartridge hits dead on at 100. So I currently carry it everywhere I go, just change out ammo depending on what I’m chasing. That’s my reason for the 243.

    Excellent content. Well done. Agree 100%. We have been running 243 in our family since the 60s. Dads, uncles, brothers & cousins. I just got a Ruger American Compact 243 for my youngest son. He harvested a little buck at around 100 yards for his first. Replacing 44 magnum rifle & AR15. The recoil is so manageable. It is very accurate with most factory ammo. I worked up moa load with 100 grain Hornady BTSP and Staball6.5. 2700 fps.
    Very happy. Thank you gents. I will stick with 243 for now.

    Actually I have both. I have a M77 II Ruger stainless (boat oar stock) 243, and a Howa 1500 heavy barrel 6mm Creedmoor. I don’t shoot competition so I don’t see a lot of difference between them, I pull the trigger and whatever is in my scope drops dead. That coyote or deer doesn’t seem to notice which bullet is going the fastest. I load my own so I have a variety of loads for both. If push came to shove I would pick the Ruger 243. There’s just something about that gun and caliber that I really like.

  • @bubba7626

    Because of the greater freebore tolerance in the 243 - you can shoot it for years without cleaning and it only gets more accurate... the coppering of the rifling has a contribution toward accuracy.. A great truck gun choice in my opinion. 😁

    Very informative content. I’m relatively new to reloading. With only a couple thousand completed cartridges under my belt. With the primary goal of making up cartridges that have acceptable accuracy and the ability to insure ethical standards for harvesting deer. We also enjoy punching paper at the range for this development. We are reloading .308 7.62x51 .223 and 5.56x45 and recently.243. My son has purchased a Lightly used Ruger precision rifle chambered in .243 and I have my trusty Ruger m-77 with 24” match grade barrel also chambered in .243. I absolutely enjoy shooting the .243 and have been fortunate to successfully harvest many deer with over the years. I usually just purchased quality 95 grain ammunition off the shelf offering acceptable accuracy. Since I’ve started reloading I find myself striving for greater and greater accuracy. It’s been an interesting journey so far with enjoyable outings with my sons at the range. Living in the country we also are fortunate to be able to push out to longer range shooting. It’s very satisfying to consistently hit targets at 5,6,7 and 800 meters. The entire process of learning to shoot accurately at these ranges has been challenging, frustrating and most of all satisfying. Steady resting, smooth trigger pull, wind holds and bullet drop compensation. There is a never ending learning curve it seems. I must say your videos have been instrumental in helping us develop our shooting and reloading experiences. We appreciate the information you share. My youngest son will be eligible to start hunting next season and this video has peaked my interest in the 6mm creed for his first hunting rifle. It will be nice to start working with a bit heavier grain projectiles. Thanks again UR / Ultimate Reloader’s.

    I have a light .243 with a 9.25” twist for deer hunting. I also have a heavier barreled .243 I just got for coyotes. I got tired of the compromises. A 58 gr bullet that meets or exceeds a 22-250 for varmints but not heavy enough to really settle in for long shooting. But a great carry rifle for deer using 85gr copper bullets or heavier. Always swapping a 4-12 deer hunting to a 6-24 for varmints.
    Then I had a sudden realization that the proper solution to this dilemma was another gun! Problem solved.
    Had I started with no guns here I think I’d still go with the two same guns. I like the versatility of the caliber and I lean towards faster lighter bullets. I think with smaller game deer sized and under that hydrostatic shock kills cleaner. Now I do like the coppers hanging together and punching through so I have a blood trail.
    If I were to build a rifle I’d go with the .243 AI, 8” twist, 5R and a short freebore

    I'll take the 243 over the 6mm CM for the same reasons I'll take the 260 REM over the 6.5 CM; the CM case is based on the obscure proprietary TC30 case while the 243 & 260 are based on the ubiquitous 308/7.62 case. By and large all I have to do if brass becomes unavailable is just simply run 308 cases through the full body dies. If you can't get CM cases, you're up a creek!

    • @airborneivan

      Not true. You can use 308 cases for 6.5 using full length resizing. You just have to have a little more patients with the process and remove the recapping pin when converting from 308 to 6.5. That and trimming your case to the appropriate length prior to sizing from .308 it 6.5. In terms of real world use, .260 Rem has virtually zero advantages over 6.5CM.

      @@ChaskeJohnson not sure who the question was directed to but with .260 Rem & 6.5 Creedmoor they're relatively close in terms of velocities and pressures. On average, 6.5CM barrel life is anywhere from 1800-3000 rounds depending on volume of fire and how hot you're loading. I'd imagine .260 to be about the same. One unknown is 6.5 barrels like Daniel Defense which are cold hammer forged barrels and nitrided. I'd imagine they would last a bit longer.

      @@airborneivan You got that backwards, it's the CM that has virtually zero advantages over the 260.
      If you have a sloppy chamber, you probably could substitute the 308 case; but the process isn't as simple as you suggested. It takes multiple dies to push the shoulder back that far ( do you have those dies on hand? I suspect not), and you'll have to anneal the brass in between reforming steps (do you have an annealing machine? I suspect not), then you'll have to use a case turning machine to not only cut down the overall length, but will have to turn down the now excessively thick neck wall thickness (do you have a case turning machine? I suspect not). I've already done that rodeo myself for a custom cartridge design of my own. Believe me, converting a 308 case to 260, then to 243 is drastically a simpler operation by a mile.
      I've already have made 260 not only out of 308, but also out of 243 brass. Have you made CM out of anything? I suspect not.

      243 is a great rifle... the REASON your consider it, is its common, can you walk into ANY deer camp, and ask if anybody has a few spare rounds because you left your ammo at home. and SOMEBODY will have a 243. --- COMMON calibers is very important. (cheaper for ammunition too). 6MM CREED is a fad, and will fade.
      personally fav common callibers currently: 300 wm, 7mm rem, 30-06, 308, 243, 223, 22-250. - There are a lot more great calibers, but these seam to be the most common.

    For me, the benefit of the newer, match oriented cartridges is that they all have the features that lend themselves to be accurate and useful. Generally tighter necks, free-bore suited to match type bullets, mag length with with match bullets seated, etc. Custom reamers in older, traditional, cartridges can get you to the same place or close, generally, but it seems that the newer cartridges are more universally accurate because they were designed specifically to be. You also tend to get better availability of good, match type factory ammo for the newer cartridges.

Said hunter uses factory ammo, probably sticks to a favourite brand and bullet that has always performed well, has used the same rifle for decades and has zero interest in 'the latest and greatest'. I reload for my .243 and have stuck to the recipe that I first worked out 35 years ago. It has never failed. I don't recall ever running it over a chronograph.

    .243 Winchester is my choice and has been for around 60 years. The .243 has never disappointed me as a hunter, reloader, or target shooter. In my first .243, my favorite reload was using the 105 gr Speer Round Nose bullets over IMR 4831. It was a deadly game round and shot like a dream. My most commonly loaded bullet weights through the years are the 80 to 87 grain bullets. I have been wanting to try a Ruger American in .243. This video now has me looking for a compact model to celebrate my 70th year.

    This video was great, very informative. My Remington model 770 has a 1-9 twist, it really loves the 100 Gr bullets, factory or may hand loads. The 243 being a over bore that it is, hand loaders who run the 55 Gr weight bullets with slower burning powder’s are going to burn out their barrels fast. My next 243 Win will be a 26 inch Remington 700, so I will be able to get more velocity. To my knowledge no factory rifles are made in 243 Win with 1-7 twist rate, which is needed for 100+ bullet weights .

    I've owned a .243 Winchester for many years. The 1/9 twist Ruger 77 put 100gr bullets through varmints to whitetail. 425 + or - a tad for deer. 500 for varmints with a MPR setting and 4x12 Leupold. Today my 243 is a Tikka super light 1/10. I shoot 80gr ttsx in Lapua brass under IMR4064 lit with CCI large rifle primers chronographed at 3410 fps. 85gr Gamekings at at 3200 fps. Just won't take the long shots like 425 with these bullets on deer. George Garner chose 115gr bullet at 3150 fps, (I think) for Tactical Competition. Something about the reliability feeding with the shoulder angle I think. All custom of course but with a fast twist barrel 243 from manufacturer's would be a very competitive market!

So I went with the 6.5CM. Increased bullet mass over the .243, slightly longer barrel life, and similar recoil.

I took that cheap hunting rifle, bedded it into a Boyd's wood stock, hand load for it and she's a 3/4 minute gun all day if I can do my part.

I don’t know if this rifle was imported into the United States at the time . It was the slickest cycling bolt action I’ve ever used , like butter on glass . With Winchester Super X 100 grain soft points it shot 3 inch groups @ 100 Yards , but when I used the new at the time Winchester Supreme 100 grain loads it shot 1 inch 5 shot groups @ 100 Yards and 1/2 Moa ( 1 inch size group ) at 200 Yards . I do regret selling it . I fired around 600 rounds through it . I was always careful to let the barrel cool right down for 10 minutes before firing the next group . If you let your 243 Winchester barrel cool down before shooting another group you should be able to get around 2500 to 3000 rounds out of the barrel before your groups start to open up a bit .

Plus, the .243 is available in TONS of factory ammo, and if you aren't shooting anything over 100 grains, then a typical barrel will work. My goal is to get a classic, wood stock rifle and then have it rebarreled with a faster twist barrel to have the ability to shoot the heavier bullets.

    The 6mm Remington and the .243 had a similar situation, the 6mm Rem was a 1:12 twist and the .243 was a 1:10 twist, so the .243 had a broader range of use and consequentially the 6mm Rem suffered in sales.

    U need to look at the Remington 244/ 1950 which is now the Remington 6mm.. im the second owner of a xustom built 244. I haven't hadcthe chance to load up some 103,105 or the 110 grain to see how it runs out. If yall were close to Tennessee I would loan it to you to see what's up, I shoot 95gr SST out of it now and it shoots good so I'm wondering if the 103 would tighten it up?

    Can you do a video on on progressive lands and get groves closer to the end of the barrel. Also left versive right hand twist when it comes to accurate groups...

    Just got into the 6mm and chose 6 creedmoor and couldn't be happier. My rifle came with a 1x7 tw and wanting to shoot the heavier bullets. It's a no-brainer. Creedmoor is just more versatile from the factory ready for anything you want to do with a 6mm

    I’m rebarreling an AR10 for 6CM with a 1-7 26 inch barrel. This looks like a fun little cartridge. I will be reloading 115 Bergers over 38.5 H4350 with Lapua Brass and CCI 450s

    Hello Gavin, I have been told its the overall bullet length that determines idea rifle twist an NOT bullet weight. What are your thoughts?

      Longer bullets weigh more.

    What happened to the Hornady 338 Express cartridge? Why was it discontinued?

    I have both. 243 in a deer rifle. 6mm Creedmoor in my Ruger Precision Rifle.

    Question: does muzzle velocity in a given caliber with a given load affect barrel life differently? So if I was reloading 243 with 80 vs 100 would the 80's reduce barrel life more?

      Powder load for a particular caliber is what will affect barrel life most. The powder is very corrosive to the barrel and 'eats' it away making it less accurate over time, especially near the chamber where the un-burnt powder clings the most. Going from 45 grains of powder to 40 grains will exponentially increase barrel life over reducing bullet weight, but typically heavier bullets require near the higher end of powder charges for an expected performance.

      Powder volume to bullet caliber. Alot of powder, and a small dia bullet burns the throat out. There will actually be microscope cracks where the steel is being worn away. 308 is easy on a barrel. Larger bullet for the powder charge. 220 swift is one of the worst barrel burners. Alot of powder, small dia bullet.

    thanks i enjoyed that video if the 6mm creed was available back when i was getting all my reloading equipment set up i would have been tossing a coin as to which to go with if you get a chance show us a little range work with those rifles

    Can you please tell me the contour of the barrels on these rifles? Thanks!

    I like how the 6 creed is set on a pedestal above the 243… subtle messaging 😂
