Speer H.P. for feral dogs - the 95gr were too severe on 'em. Keep these for Fallow deer or try the 100gr. The 95gr/100gr should handle goats and pigs with well placed shots.
Good hunting.
Gold Coast Reloads looked pretty good. Reloaded 243 rounds were about $30 per 20 + postage. Certainly no dearer than cheaper factory ammo.
I sent an email and didn't hear back. Called GCR and told them what I was after, they said they would email me postage costs & details... never heard back.
Going to start with factory ammo instead. 243 Tikka 90gr soft points are about $100 per 50. Will see how they go on deer and foxes and go from there.
Will keep the empty cases just in case I do reload. The gun comes with 243 dies.
