The Nosler 100 grain Partition is also a great bullet with H4350.

The bullet on the right is an 85 gr. Nosler from 1988, (if I remember correctly). 3-point mulie never knew what happened! The bullet was not used on an elk. An old picture used originally for another forum.

The 80 gr. BTs are classed as Varmint by Nos

Yea and as the original poster I still keep an eye on it to see what's posted. I may move away from the .243 that I have as it prints about 4" at 50yds. It a Remington 770 but I do have a Armalite AR-10 in .243.

4 inches at 50 yards says it might be time for a new barrel.

Never has shot well. It was free and it's took a few deer.
