If you're invested in a 6x6.8, 243 lbc, 6 dti, etc, there won't be much reason to change. If you're just getting into the game, a factory round will be very appealing.
I know the round will be great because I had 2 different 243 lbc's and that's a great round. If I was getting back into one, I'd go with the factory round I think.
