The 243 as a varmint cartridge - summed up in one pic

[p-17]

Good photography, Mikey. And excellent shooting, too! Makes me wish I could try varmint hunting some day.

Yup nice shot and nice pic. Sure hard put to find a more capable round than the .243 for stoppin a varmint on the spot. I've killed hundreds of chucks with .243's. Flat and not bad in cross winds. Lots of bullet choices and lots of powder choices. Just about every manufactorer chambers a rifle in .243 even NEF!
In hawg shooting we want to try get the hawg airborne if we can. The .243 can get a chuck of the ground no sweat. Love em

Wow, nuts, looks like it really blew a little fur out.

I wonder if a .378 WBY might have eviscerated the yote instead or something?

Gutted it, skinned it, and dried the hide all in one shot. LOL - dan
