Opinions on the 243 WSSM?

[Ruttin' Buck]

I'm hoping there's a few guys out there that have punched a few holes with the new 243 WSSM.

For those of you who aren't familiar, 2 of the newest rifle rounds to hit the market are the 223 and 243 WSSM (Winchester super short mags). They used the concept of the short mags on these two rounds to get a 243 factory 55 grain bullet to dump out of the barrel at 4260fps. That's fast...really fast.

Well, I've primarily deer hunt with a bow but have used my 7mm for years to party hunt the rifle season. I load 100gr hollows to use lucky #7 for varmint hunting or use my father's 22-250. I've been tossing around the idea of purchasing the 243 WSSM for varmints. It would be a legal deer rifle and would probably come in handy for those long range antelope.

Has anyone shot one? Have one? How do they group? With that high velocity, are they consistent?

Any opinions would be greatly appreciated.
