About 100 gr would be the sweet spot ? I did find 20 boxes in my hoard lolI think 1-10 is the "normal" twist for .243 in contemporary production. Which supposedly is good up to or a bit beyond 100 gr. weight bullets. However, longer bullets 90 gr. and up like a faster twist. This can be an issue now what with the many "long range" bullets.
For paper, the best is either the cheapest or the most accurate. Try what you have then decide. Do you want to blast, or group?I have two rifles in 243 win and have ammo from 57ge to 87 a-maxx factory Hornady what is the best weight to use this will be for paper at this time

If they are not too long. The newer, longer bullets tend to need more spin to stabilize. See post #4, above, "keyholing." Anything that is "very low drag" design will tend to be longer. Better for flying through the air but they must be fired in a barrel that gives sufficient spin to stabilize.About 100 gr would be the sweet spot ?
Its my understanding that, generally, lighter bullets will be more stable in flight (ie, accurate) with slower twist barrels like yours.I have two rifles in 243 win and have ammo from 57ge to 87 a-maxx factory Hornady what is the best weight to use this will be for paper at this time
