.243 is one caliber I have never shot. I have shot the Remington 700 in .270 and thought that was a great flat shooting cartridge. How would you compare the two. The .270 is pretty popular down in Texas. As for SHTF Steve is right, I'd stick with .556/.223 or .308. Other rifle ammo might be hard to come by, even 30-06. I'd imagine the Russian stuff would dry up pretty fast (7.62x54R) and then the 7.62x39. Is there anything special about reloading .243 or .270 that would be different or to look out for? I am still a real noobie at reloading, but so far every round I have done has gone bang (only .308, .223 and .45acp).
