Would this provide comparable performance (or at least a somewhat close approximation) as a .243 factory load option?

Metal mag feed lips can help get it to feed. I have a howage setup with a 6.5CM that was a 30-06 in a previous life, MDT metal 5 round mag solved my issue, took a while to get the feed lips to push the case up without scratching the brass too bad.
Every fudd is going to be screaming “that round doesn’t have enough wallop” at the TV when they see that.
He'll just put the ear flaps on his hat down and tie them tight
They'll just complain about how many shots it took him (The third one being unnecessary, but it was an insurance shot)... While looking away from how they do the same thing.
You would think with the popularity the 6mm is gaining the past several years that sierra would want to make a bullet that competes with the 108 eldm. Either way, unless sierra starts showing some consistency in the availability of their products, I won’t consider them. Reloading components are too rare and expensive to waste load work up on products that may/may not be available tomorrow.
They are coming out with a 107g bullet.
Any hint of a timeframe?
I can't imagine the carnage that bullet will create with a 6um.
It's not a TMK; imagine if an ELD-M and a Berger Hybrid had a baby. There is also a 142g 6.5, but I didn't hear the weight of the .223.
Hmmm.... Resupply on 108eld or wait it out for 107tmk?
I'm guessing they don't do a huge run and they're gone immediately then incredibly hard to get.
Either way.... Someone send a box to JVB!
Something like an OTM?
Do you have any info on BC that you can share?
A pointed 107smk has better bc, shorter bearing, very accurate and extremely consistent inside lot #s. I think it's a better bullet than the 108 eldm in most mannerisms but terminal. The 107 smk will not expand 90+ % the time. 108 is a monster of a bullet for killing.
