243 for my son

[Andy L]

I just re read your post. Im far from inexperienced myself. I have too killed several deer with a 243. Not my favorite, but still good.

You said varmint style bullets were not effective. I agree with that. The 80gr bullets I have been using for my son are far from varmint style bullets. Not hollow points for ballistic tips. They are Remington PSP. Same construction as their 100gr bullets, just lighter. They hold together, mushroom and make two holes, same as their big brothers.

If that was your confusion, I apologize.

Otherwise we will have to continue to agree to disagree.

I actully have had worse luck with 25 cal Nosler Partitions coming apart and acting like ballistic tips than anything out of my 25-06AI. They suck.
