Thread: .243 uses

I shot dozens with the 95 Targex - they are soft and that's why I guess they are effective on deer but they will also occasionally explode like Amax can. I had that happen on a Tahr but it was an exception and not the rule.

The 3 bullets I have used extensively out of the 243 have been the 95 Targex, 80 grn Speer Hot Core and the 85 grn Interbond. The 85 grn Interbond was out and out the best but there was nothing wrong with the others' either. The Interbonds though are spendy and a bit hard to get to shoot.

My last .243 was a Browning xbolt though and not a Tika.
