The axis HB in 243 is a great rifle. I added a boyds thumbhole varmint stock to mine. If you want a nice long range round, try 95gr SMKs over H1000. In mine, 48gr get me half moa groups @ 3080 fps.
The below image was taken from a load development target (100 yards). The center and top left are both 5 shot groups with 48grs. The top right had 48.2. The measurements are edge to edge, so if you subtract .243 both of those 48gr groups are under half moa.
Here's a short video of my daughter sending a few rounds down:
