Hi,

Does anyone have experience with a .243 WSSM on a AR15 platform?

I have one, but I do not shoot it often. I may end up selling it as I use a 6.8 SPC for that type of work now...

I have one, with 2 more on order, and a friend has one plus a cooper in 243wssm and I am also building a custom 1 3/8" barrel bolt gun right now. Great caliber and works awsome in an ar. Never heard of one that didn't shoot great.

I've got an Oly Arms 243 WSSM. Its a really good shooter. Never fails to feed, seems to be easy on brass. Devastating on Disney rats using 62gr Barnes Varmint Grenades. Shoots 1/2" at 100 yds using 80gr TTSX also.

I have a 25WSSM and it is a great gun. Do to ammo costs, I would only recommend the cartridge if you handload.

I have an Oly 25 Wssm upper that put on a mutt lower and i love it. Great accuracy and it has fed reliably with just over 100 rounds through it. You should reload for it because of ammo cost though. I reload so my costs aren't through the roof but it can still be pricey.
