I have never shot anything with the Nosler 95 and do not usually provide advice on things I have not personally done but nobody else has replied so I will say that the 95 grain has decent sectional density but not really great. For a 243 it is probably a good choice for an intermediate range of say 300 - 500 yards (that would be a very respectable shot for your son and you should be proud of such a shot). I have shot quite a few whitetails with 85 grain bullets and see no reason a 95 grain bullet would not do an even better job on an antelope.

Maybe somebody who really knows will answer.
