    Goats and fallow suggest you want to stay with the softer bullets..
    The SST is softish and they perform well. the eldx and the 100gf interlocks i would suggest are a bit stout for these particually at the longer distances.
    From that list I would be picking the Speer 85gr.
    The others I don't know.

    My old man used to use 75gr for fallow in the blue mountains, 85-87gr for reds.
    If you are shopping to buy bullets the Sierra Game King 85gr and hornady 87gr boat tail are popular in 243 for mid size game and generally well priced.
