Good advice above.

The 243 will eat up barrels quite fast and in particular with a full charge load. The 55 gr load really does not have a special advantage over other potential 243 loads as it will drift a little more than longer bullets.

I suggest that you take at least two rifles and use the 243 for only long range shots were it would be superb.

Otherwise that 243 will not last til this October.
