I am in about the same place ,no culling experience but over the last 40 years I've piled up the antelope and more than a few deer.95+% of the antelope were dbl lung shots and 100 gr Hornady SP flatbase was a staple I used a lot of, I felt then and still do that they held together better than the boattails . I also used 100 gr Corelokts,95 gr & 100 gr NPT's. My old 243 is about ready to be rebarreled and I'm thinking 6 Creed although it would be less expensive to just buy a new Ruger in 6 Creed. So with a chance at a almost new 6mm Rem for $335 I jumped on it. 3 or 4 weeks back I got in on the SPS 95 gr NBT run of seconds. Far as I'm concerned 243 /6mm are damn near perfect for antelope at normal hunting ranges.. MB
