[QUOTE="k8hvntn, post: 779318, member: 61282"] 95 vld are my go to bullet for my 243. 1:9 twist. 1/4 groups all day H4350 is the go to powder 42 gr, cci br primers. fed work well to but cci's have lower Es. average speeds out of most 243's are 3100 to 3200 and 3350 to 3400 out of the Ackley. H100 is also an excellent powder but it either works or doesn't get a little better speeds. if you are to use vlds. and never have make sure to start with them touching the lands. they do not like to jump. touching or jammed in a few thou. Hybrid 105's are awesome. Great bc's not near as picky. lot easier to tune. I shot deer and antelope on a regular basis out past 600 at regular basis. but keep in mind that it is all about shot placement. they have the energy but with out placing it in the right place you"ll be chasing them FOREVER.... We are shooting at 800 to 1200 at a regular basis in 10 to 20 mph winds. keep this in mind when trying to push the envelope. [/QUOTE]
