My 10¢ I'm discovering that "hunting" in 'merica, means often, a different thing, than does the term "hunting" in NZ and OZ. It transpires that what we Kiwis think of as hunting, in NZ and OZ,...

There is a lot of factors to this, I guess. First of all: a totally different approach to hunting/game in general. Being classified as pests game is eradicated by rigorous means in NZ - in the US...

The NZ made 105 Targex (they use Berger jackets) might be worth a try. The 95grn are very good (and popular) in 1:10 .243. Ive used them a lot, and the 69grn in .223. Pretty damned good.
