Lehigh controlled chaos 243

[68w]

I was browsing about and found 60 gr. Version loaded ammunition 23$ for 20. What very few reviews available seemed promising. 60 gr projectile around 3700 fps has a very nice trajectory. Anyone used these? Seem like it would perform well on whitetail and much more affordable than other "premium" bullets

Not familiar with that bullet or the company, but you may have issues with blowup on the surface and poor penetration. If it were me, I would stick with 85 to 105 grain bullets for whitetail.

It's a bar stock mono bullet, not varmint. Has petals on the top half that are meant to break off and make separate wound channel, and a base the penetrates deep. Similar to Barnes perhaps, but with a 2 part bullet Construct.

Hello,
Lehigh Defense makes some fantastic specialized projectiles that transfers right over to their partnership with the loaded ammunition company.
The ammunition you are inquiring about should work great for deer. The old adage of "speed kills" is paired with "controlled" fragmentation in that ammunition.
Look at some of the 223 controlled chaos videos on youtube to see the penetration and fragmentation in ballistic gel test

*Caution* Be SURE to remove ALL the copper out of your barrel before shooting this ammunition...the brass projectile does NOT mix with copper in your barrel. The accuracy will be horrible if the copper is not removed.
