Anyone had experience with these.  I found some at a yard sale over the weekend. I thought about loading some for my 243 and using them for deer.

No personal experience with that bullet exactly, but considering my good thoughts about both the .243 and Nosler bullets I think you have a fine idea. Nosler has a whole page of data for it and the 90g BT in the 5th ed. book. What powder(s) are you looking at using?

Wish I could find a good deal on some at a garage sale.
