14 twist 243 AI or faster?

[OIF/OEF]

I happened onto some Krieger barrels low round count very cheap. They are 6ppc 14 twist at the moment and will be rechambered to 243 AI or something faster. I know Ill have to shoot light bullets which is fine as it will be a Coyote blaster/plinker. Any advice is greatly welcomed.

6PPC bbls are normally on the short side, a 6 BR maybe a better choice or freshen the chamber up in 6PPC.

+ on the 6BR

i'v gone both ways and no question, the 6 BR! the 243 AI with a slow twist shooting light bullets will eat your barrel in no time. light bullets in a 14 tw 6BR will go plenty fast and the barrel will last a LONG time.
