Remember, one of the beauties of the barrel nut is that tightening it with the GO-Gauge in place completes the headspacing woth NO MACHINING!

Speaking of off beat or emerging cartridges, have you looked at the 6 Creedmoor?

Hornady is already producing ammunition for it and one can use the longest Bullets by going to a 7- or 8-Twist. These include the 115 gr Berger and DTAC pills. (EXCEPTION -- GS Custom offers a leadfree 106 gr thay they recommend a 6-twist.)

Might have to download 55 gr pills unless lead puffballs are a serious form of entertainment.

Barrel life should be a tad better than the 243 Winchester too.
I've got a friend that shoots it. I clean his brass, find it interesting, but I like the 6mmBR for efficiency.
