Thats cool, yes, i figured it makes hunting and getting your rifle shooting well far more interesting and can see why people have such opinions on use this and that and talking some fancy projectiles to use.
Thats more than fine, im sure they work and its all good.
Im just stating thou that for a 243, which many use for shorter range, bush stalking etc so many projectiles will work and a simple, unfancy softpoint will do the job very well and its not total rocket science.

But of cause reloaders are into rocket science so each to their own and im sure theres some more satifaction getting a animal with your own reloads. But for a factory round those blue boxes are totally awesome and cant be beat for bush ranges
