Fireball...
My buddy who reloads a 243 says the 100 grain n.p. Was the best deal for that cartridge.

Thats the only bullet I've ever used in a 243 and it's worked for over 30 years.

Yeah, it works great.
I wouldn't say it's the ONLY bullet to use in the .243, but to steal a quote about the .30-06 from Townsend Whelen, "it's never a mistake."

Remington used to put 101 bullets in their boxes. That was back when they came in a green plastic box with orange label. I bought three boxes of .243 80gn HPs and got an extra bullet in each box.

I've never had any meat loss with partitions in the shoulders either as long as I put the bullets thru the ribs behind the shoulders. Mb
