.243Win 105gn A-Max for fox???

[Oly 12]

I've heard and read about a lot of people using .243Win 105gn A-Max's for hunting. In the US they use them on deer, fox & coyotes.

 

Anyone had any experience of this, particularly on foxes?

 

I'm personally thinking that 105gn of not too deformable lead as being not too suitable - as it may pass straight through a fox - however I am up for being dis-proved (as being able to buy them cheap over the phone on mail order does have it's advantages!!) :thumbs-up:

Hello Oly this will be a good thread as these are match round's & i guess not legal on deer/vermin under the condition's of you FAC.I have used them in 22.250 & they do expand but they are a soft match round & not classed as expanding i think .I would think again that you would need a 1-9 twist for these bullet's but nothing ventured nothing gained.Im sure someone will know better than me on this but let's see role on the debait.

well, lads

these bullets will not stabilize in a 1 in 10 twist or slower so you will be waisting your time and money,

1 in 9 or quicker i afraid to tell you...... they will shoot but they will tumble in flight, in a .243 with 1 in 10 twist.
