Ya 6x45 is pretty much as easy as it gets and a very usable effective round.

243 wssm brass from Hornady and Winchester are readily available. 1000 yd capability from a light and small frame AR. 95 gr Sierra TMKs fit in mag length and are supersonic past 1k yds. You can also use 105 gr berger hybrids but have to single load. With a shilen select match barrel, you can make use of that range. Dtechuppers.com does great work, but not inexpensive.
