First night on the foxes with the new .243

Been up on the shoot and court up with this little pheasant munching vixen 

231 yards out mousing in the stubble field, a nice one to take not to far from one of the pens

They seem spot on, they fly nice and flat, the down side is the price, the sako 70g are 35 quid a box, the lighter hornady are almost 10 quid cheaper but the rifle doesn’t like them, so I think once I’ve used the two boxes I’ve got I’ll look for something a bit cheaper to chuck at foxes

Norma seems a pretty good round in 243,  we always used them, as do a few of my mates now.
