Re: Fur down
I planned on it but happen to have a can of imr 4350 and read that was good in the 243 as well so I figured what the hell and tried it with great success. I'm not a dedicated 243 shooter and only planned to shoot this until the barrel is toast ten put my Schneider barrel on it. Decided to save the h4350 for my creedmoor. Here's the 87vmax with 41gr of imr seated 2.780

Was that the exit or entrance? I've shot the 75s frequently when I had my 243 and they didnt exit on most things I shot. Wonderin if the 87s punched through or not.

Re: Fur down
It did punch thru because it was a quartering shot but the exit seemed about the same size.
