Gents,
I am new to CF shooting, and the help I am getting on here is invaluable - hopefully one day I will be able to give something back and not just take knowledge… Until then, this weeks question is….
To those that shoot 243. Do you change bullet and re-zero when shooting different species (fox v deer) or stick with one round?
At the moment I am trying PPU 100gr as a cheap intro. I know this will kill Charlie and there is no such thing as overkill, but I read that I may be better with a BT in a lighter round for more violent expansion, range and flatter trajectory?
I am trying to be cheap, I don't have the time or inclination to re-load, so its factory all the way - for now. The PPU is nearly half the price of anything else out there. I wouldn't mind paying more, if it gets me a big advantage, if you get me.
It might seem like an obvious/silly question to those in the know, but the vast array of ammo vs my more comfortable rimfire baffles my rather small mind.
If it makes any difference the rifle is a Howa 1500.
