[QUOTE="sierra22, post: 375697, member: 949"] My load is 87 Hornady Vmax in front of XX grains of Vit N160 in Lapua 243 brass. It exits at 950 msec in my 18,5" barrel and kills deer very reliably when shot in the shoulders. In the lungs it produces a bit of soup. Tried Federal Fusion 95gr factory as well. Very accurate and knocked them dead also. So far only shot 17 deer and a dozen foxes/hares with this rifle. This is what the present project all started with: My old Tiny-Sako in 6x45 with a good buck on a perfect day... Shot some 25-30 deer with this rifle using the Sierra 85gr Gameking exiting at 830 msec but wasn't too happy about the lack of effect when shot in the lungs.
