25gr Berger Match, (not the MEF), does really, really well. I load mine .2 under max load and they shoot well and have very little hide damage.

Second choice for fur would be the 25gr VMax.

The heavier bullets tend to penetrate too much and the lighter bullets tend to splash more without penetration.

25gr runnin anywhere close to, + or - 4000 fps is really hard to beat.

With good shot placement, alot of bang flops with no exit. But, if you hit a shoulder bone, expect a splash and big hole. Its a shooters round. But, all guns are. If you shoot a shoulder with any rifle, you are more than likely going to get a big hole to sew.
