.243 target bullet

We're thinking of using a .243 rifle as a target gun, oomans. What bullet would you recommend ? Our twist rate is 1 in 7 inches...

I use Berger 108 grn in my 6br (Same bore size) with a 1 in 8 twist out to 1000 yards. I think you would get away with the 115 grain Begers with a 1 in 7. Excellent quality bullet. Other that that, the 105 gn Scenar shoots well. The 105 Amax shoot well for some people too, I've had variable results.
