Jim Carmichael's take on the .244/6mm is interesting, but I've seen the opposite of what he's apparently see -- I have seen several .244s shoot very poorly with heavy bullets.
I also don't think that his reasoning for why the .243 outsold the .244 (prettiness of the rifles) holds much sway -- the 722 sold very well for its entire life.
