[Mr dippy]

Plenty of foxes about, what's the favourite calibre. I am using 6.5 x 55. 120 grain soft point

Fantastic foxing re loaded round Nvhit 160

Used the estates .243 or .223

Plenty of foxes about

Not around here there aren't. At least, not any more...

.22-250 and .204 are the preferred calibres on the 32,000-odd acres we look after.

ive shot a few in the last 2 weeks using a nosler bt 120g with 48g n165 also in 6.5 x 55 ..... not had a runner yet !!!

 

[.243Ady]

.243 and remington 75grn accutip, not many foxes around here

. The .204 is a wonderful foxing round, but the .243 with a 55gn round is really quite impressive.

Ive had 4 this week, with my Tikka 223 and Nosler 55g bt's,while testing out the new Dfa75

 

[V8 90]

[daddyo]

[John Gryphon]

7mm Rem Mag with 100 grain hollow points...WHAT fox?

 

[User00047]

.243 win / Federal 55grain ballistic tip.

 

[norma 308]

6.5, 120 bt ....windy night foxer

22/250 ,55 bt .... Nice night foxer
just me that lets the side down occasionally

20 couple of Hounds.

22-250 does the job nicely with 55gr BT.
High winds or middle of hard winter, they drop.......This is an awesome foxing caliber.
Im sure the like of a .243 with a 55gr bullet still upsets the fox population equaly as well!

 

[Spix]

Point and shoot triple 2, although nothing really quite beats the rush and satisfaction of dropping one freehand headshot rimfire 22

 

[tikka2506]

22/250 with sierra 55gn pill and plenty of Varget!!!

 

[Tim.243]

Rem 700 .243 75 grain accui tips....tried 55 & 100 but the 75 works the best out of the 3 weights for me....

You can reach a good way humanely, with a 1/8 twist .223 throated for 69 grain Noslers.
