Does such a thing exist or is this an oxymoron? I am limited to factory ammunition. If there is no such thing I believe I'll be trading it for a .223, .204. 0r .17 something.

If you are limited to factory ammo, I'd say trading is your best option.

If you're truly looking to sell the fur, then by all means trade it in.
There are those that will tell you that the .243, loaded with the right ammo., is not all that hard on fur. But in reality, it's a crap shoot at best. Sometimes you won't tear 'em up, BUT more times than not, you're going to have a nasty exit wound.
Any of the above listed "other" choices will be a better choice.
Laws aren't preventative measures. In other words, more laws won't prevent gun crime from happening.

Or you could get a .22-250 and shoot WW 45 gr. ??

No need to trade. Buy some 58 grain Hornady loads. Might want to keep it off of the quartering-on shoulder shots but you won't have many exits. A .204 with 35 grain Bergers is definitely a better fur choice, though.

Factory and fur-friendly?
Nope.

Pretty much the answer I expected, but it worth the query! Off to trade, that's not the worst end result!
