Oly Posted June 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 Getting back to the subject, anyone got any favourite .243Win bullet heads for deer? Like the look of nosler partition but would like some confirmation - particularly with regard to the 100gn version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham M Posted June 19, 2007 Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 Looks like our posts coincided. I use 100grn Nosler Partitions using H414 (40grns). This is very accurate in my Tikka .243 using 1-10 twist. G.M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oly Posted June 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 Excellent, thanks for that Graham I'm also keen on this round as following one of your last posts I've been looking into the versatility of H414 - which should work well with the loads/weights I'm intending on trying. Thanks again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Browning Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 I had real problems trying to stabilize 100gn rounds in my T3 and after a great deal of testing ended up with Sierra 85gn Gamekings. Very accurate and excellent stopping power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very accurate and excellent stopping power. The T3 in .243 has a 1-10 twist and should stabilise anything up to 105grns. My T3 actually shoots the 100grn Partitions’ better than the 70grn V-max. G.M.

I remember you gave me some load advice at the time Graham, whatever I tried (different bullet makes, powders, primers) I just couldn't get groupings that I was happy with. On the other hand the 85gn gamekings and 75Gn VMax work a treat in my T3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
