[QUOTE="aroshtr, post: 712739, member: 9176"] I set up my sons 243 wit the 95grn berger. It is a factory Ruger rifle, and they stabilize just fine. He shot his buck at 211 yards. The bullet hit the shoulder blade on entry, and from the inside of the chest the entry was about 2". No exit, just some slight damage to the other side of the chest cavity. Buck only took a few steps and fell over. I have his loaded down to about 2850fps as well. If loading these fast, I would be careful about shot selection under 200-300 yards, and not aim for the shoulder, but slightly farther back for a lung hit. [/QUOTE]
