[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 2280385, member: 109862"] It is for this very reason I never take head shots. Decided I’d only need to learn that lesson exactly once after a horrible experience as a teenager (ironically with a .243). We did recover the animal and finish the job but I can’t remember ever feeling worse about myself than that. as for the original question my answer would be to check out the 90 grain Sierra tipped gameking /game changer if they don’t have a fast enough twist to stabilize heavier bullets. It has a bc of .48 which is great for the weight, is a dedicated and designed long range hunting bullet, and best of all for me specifically stabilizes in the 1:10 twist of my old savage 99 (same .243 from the previous story).
