    .243 Win loads

    I have a Savage Axis that I want to reload for. I'm looking for suggestions for a good all around deer and varmint bullet and loads. Thanks. -Troy

    For deer I like the 100gr Nosler partition with RL22. My favorite varmint bullet is the 87gr hornady vmax with h414.

    95 or 100 grain Nosler Partition have done in many a whitetail for me, I have always loaded them over IMR 4350.

    95 Nosler ballistic tips on top of H4350 is my go to. Have also had good luck on deer with 85 Barnes TSX.

    I also use an axis for coyotes and deer occasionally. It came with 5 boxes of Winchester varmintX in 58 grain. The bullet performs great on yotes. But I cannot figure out who makes the bullet. For reloaded rounds nosler 80gr ballistic tip is my go to.
