.243, 49.0gr Superformance, Speer 75gr HP, CCI-200, coal 2.640". Supremely accurate, fast (3,500fps+), and knocks coyotes into next week. Al least it takes me that long to find all the pieces. grin They also are great for piggies.

I do control work and don't (can't) take hides so that's not an issue for me. If I did hunt for hides, I'd be using a Speer 50gr TNT in my .223. That one doesn't even exit on a broadside body shots on Bobcats. Tiny entrance hole, no exit, and jelly in between.
