Been a long time but I recall the rifling twist of 243 is suited for 75-80 gr bullets, whereas 6mm/244 Rem has faster twist for the heavier bullets

I had an old Remington 7400 in 243,It was surprisingly one of the most accurate semi's I have ever shot.
Sold it off because of the weak bolt system's,Nothing was wrong with mine,If you keep it clean it ran just fine...
Sure hope not!

Just the opposite, the Remington 6mm had a slower twist starting off with and was named the 244 Remington in the beginning and would stabilize up to 90gr bullets. Later they changed it to a 1:9 twist but the 243 had became more popular already with it's 1:10 twist that would stabilize the 100gr bullets used for deer hunting. The 6mm Rem never caught up and was discontinued later.

If you don’t think about it the time will pass quicker.
First time in my life I’ve ever loaded 9mm. 4400 rounds of 115gr and I loaded 500 rounds of 124gr subs just because. Now I’m just waiting for another 1500 bullets. Trying to keep it to jacketed ammo.

Lol, I dumped one of those on the floor late one night last week. Kinda worried about what’s gonna be one of the wife’s vacuum cleaner if I missed some. Maybe I should set up some video in my gun room before she gets in there.

Dump the contents of that vacuum cleaner in the garbage, Reassembly, Start vacuuming yourself, You'll know when a primer hits that baby, Lots of rattling as it goes up the tube.
The rattling ain’t what I’m worried about.
....on second thought, maybe I’ll just let fate take care of things. Maybe she don’t need to be in there so much.
