[QUOTE="Outlaw6.0, post: 658721, member: 23486"] OP, Here in my neck of the woods (NE Wyo) the 22-243 is VERY popular, (yep I have one too:D ) Coyote hunting is taken pretty seriously by some of us & this little cartridge fits the bill nicely. The 75 & 80 Grn A-Max are THE go to bullets for pretty much everybody that shoots the 22-243 (except my rechambered 1-12 twist). As it is illegal to harvest deer, 'lopes & such with anything smaller than a 243 cal here, I cannot attest to the ability of the 22 cal A-Max to harvest deer. I haven't heard of a single blow up or any failures to reach a target. Most velocities are in the 3500fps range [U]safely [/U]& they do quite well even out to 1K yds (the Wyo wind really pushes them around out there :D). If you do intend to harvest deer, go heavy on the bullet side. Good luck [/QUOTE]
