[QUOTE="wackinandstackin243, post: 1315948, member: 59412"] I used the 70 grain hpbt matchking. I know match bullets don't seem like the logical choice, but I knew I wanted to use 70 grain bullets and that's what I found at the local store. The gun agreed with them and they weren't hurting the fur so I stuck with them. That being said I also use 6.5 140s and 308 168s. THese heavier bullets at much lower velocity have completely different results. However a little 70 grain 243 going at high velocity doesn't exactly punch through without expansion. As far as I can tell it has always performed similar to any other varmint type bullet. The only fur damage I ever had were belly shots and any caliber bullet combo will do that. [/QUOTE]
