[QUOTE="VinceMule, post: 2690099, member: 122164"] We have killed some nice bucks with the 95g Nosler partition in the 243 with R#19 and IMR 4831. Later on, we started using the 100g Hornady btsp, flat base, and the 95g SST. It is my belief that lung-shot deer should be expected to run, but some do not. All of the above bullets will handle shoulder shots, and the hardy 95g Nosler ballistic tip that my brother and nephew shoot should not be overlooked. The last deer I shot with a 243 was in Kansas. I rattled in a 240 lb buck while sitting in a hay bale blind from over 700 yards. The Heavy 8 pointer stopped in his tracks at 300 yards, where I dropped him in his tracks with a 100g Hornady BTSP.
