22-243 winchester

What exactly are you looking for. I'm pushing 75 gr amax bullets out of mine at 3500 fps. I'm using a 1/8 twist. Could push harder but 3500 seems to be moat accurate.
 
I haven't kept up with round count but I'm guessing its getting close to 400 and still shoots .5moa. It has lost some throat but not sure how much since I lost a lot of paperwork in a move. Its one of my favorite guns. As simple to reload as a standard 243. With a BC in the. 400+ for several 75-80gr bullets it shoots amazingly flat. I've killed deer, hogs, coyotes, and almost every thing else in north Texas with one shot kills.
 
what load are you guys running with the 75gr Amax's in your 22-243. I have 8lbs of IMR4350 that i think would work alright?

Ever try any Barnes X bullets on game? I'm thinking of loading some in a 22-6mm for deer.
