[QUOTE="YZ-80, post: 1845130, member: 109229"] I have a couple of .243’s and until recently always loaded some combination of IMR 4350 or RL-22 with a 70 grain Nosler BT (Varmints) or 95 grain Nosler BT (deer). In the fall, I’d reset my POI for the deer load and in the spring, for the Varmint load. Those days are over. I now shoot an 85 grain Sierra BTHP exclusively over 42 grains of IMR 4350 in both rifles. I have set them for a 200 yard zero and it serves both my varminting needs and my deer needs. Very “DRT-ish” in both settings and no need to reset my zeros anymore. The Sierras are cheap too, so you can probably plink with them without breaking the bank. Just my .02. Best, -YZ [/QUOTE]
