Match Chamber for 105s in .243?

[nashlaw]

I am going to spin on a Criterion pre-fit. I have one in .223 and another in 7mm08. Both perform well above price point.

I emailed James at Northland and he pointed me to the .243 Match chamber. I was going that way until I asked him about running 115s and he stated that I would have my bullet back in the case.

I have enough Hornady 105s to burn out a couple barrels. I don't want to pester James as I am guessing he is covered up. Also, I wanted some comments from people who have fielded this combo.

So, here is the question: Have any of you gents ran the 105s in a Criterion prefit with match chamber? What twist and what results downrange?

Thank you for your time.

You should get a 6xc prefit from me with the Tubb 160 fb made for the 115. Much easier to deal with than the 243 with it's super short neck. About 200 bucks cheaper too.
