Anyone use a Sierra 70 grain match in a .243

I am going to start loading up this bullet next week. I was able to find some in stock at my local army navy. They even had powder in stock. It felt like the good old days. Anyone have any pet loads or suggestions or input on performance. I was thinking of using Varget and running it slow as a pelt friendly coyote bullet.
 
I've used it in my 243 and it shot'em good.
I think it was varget that I used too.
Can't remember the exact load but if you wont me too I can go look. They shot better than about anything that I've tried in my 6x223 too. Killed 1 yote with it in that gun and it didn't do too much damage to the hide. Run about 40-50 yrds and hit the ground.
