Another +1 to avoiding that trade. The .223 WSSM will not fit your intent.

I'd hold onto the .243. At 26, and hunting in Alabama, at some point you'll probably grow out of your .300 Win Magnumitis and appreciate that .243 more than you do now.
 
I have mine in the AR platform and use it pretty much only for prairie dog shooting. For this application it works wonderful. I don't try to see how fast i can shoot bullets but instead i shoot heavier 69gr match bullets at distance with it, which it does well at. For really long shots i go to one of my AR's in 243WSSM which will shoot out too 1000yds accurately on pasture poodles. I reload and also anneal all my cases for case life. I wouldn't bother having a bolt gun though in any WSSM caliber as i think it would be a waste.
