243 ULTRA LOAD yote/deer
« on: February 25, 2005, 05:05:18 AM »
I recently bought a 243 which shoots 80 gr win pretty good but we are trying to work up a 85 gr sierra bthp for yotes and deer I was wondering if anyone had suggestions or exp with these and if any load data. Looking for killing potential but would also like it to be extremely accurate These will be the first I have loaded so starting from scratch I have a friend with dies and the willingness to help.

I use 55gr bt Nosler for yote.  THIS IS A MAX LOAD SO BE CAREFUL!
 
55GR BT NOSLER  
52.7 GR OF H414
WIM. CASE  
CCI LG RIFLE BR
 
I shoot these in my Rem. 700 I get 1/2 "  groups @ 100yds.  They are right around 4000fps and deadly accurate.  Shot coyote Thursday at 300 yds, didn't have a chance.  Was running away from me and as soon as I squeezed the trigger she flipped on impact.  Now for deer loads I can't tell you because it is shotgun only here in IL.  Good Luck, It takes time but you will get it.
