a mohawk 600 huh? you lucky dog. i've looked for one of those for years. they are scarce as chicken lips around here.

i've gotten excellent performance with game kings, honady and nosler partitions in 100gr pills on big whitetails in both my 243 standard and 243 ackley.

for the 243 any of those bullets will work perfect. they stay in one piece and don't break up.

start at 37 grs of imr 4350 and work your way up to 43.5grs. some manuals say that 41.5 grs is tops, others say 43.5grs. thats why i say start at 37 and work your way up in half grain increments and check for pressure signs. my best loads were between 42 and 43 grains. also check your overall cartridge length. mine has a long throat so your results will vary. this is the old, my guns different than your gun syndrome.

good luck to that youngin'.
