Does anybody load this one?
« on: December 21, 2004, 11:46:15 AM »
243 WSSM

I also have this posted in Small Bore Rifles!  Not much response there, I'm hoping I'll get more info here!

My step-father wants me to load this cartridge for his rifle. He has a Winchester rifle, I don't know the exact model number, but it has the 3-position safety and I believe it has a 26 inch barrel

Anyone have any good data on this cartridge, or know where I can get it on-line? I want to use 100 grain Winchester Spire Points!
I am not going to "HOT-ROD" this cartridge, I'm just going to try and make it do what it's supposed to do!

Hey Chuck,
   You might look at shortmags.org.  There is some information on the website.
