Thread: 6mm/243 projectile selections

I see Nosler now have a 90g Accubond which looks good as I expect I can drive this pretty fast (3200-3300fps). The 90g E-tip also was a thought as well as the 80g TTSX. The copper bullets have killed well for me in the past in 7mm and would not need to be high BC if the 105s shoot anyway. I suppose the 100g Corelokt would be another good killer?
Does anyone have experiences good or bad in these bulllet types in the 243?
Your comments would be appreciated.

i have used the 6.5mm impalas on pigs to great effect, some poeple dont like them but for a close range bullet it is worth considering. i hope you find the ballistics studies site helpful tons of info
