My brother and I are just getting started in predator hunting. He is planning on getting a .223, but for the time being, the only rifle we have that would work for coyote is my .243. We are planning on one of us with a shotgun for close and the other with the .243 for distance until he gets the .223. My main concern right now is fur damage. I may be wasting my time even thinking about it with the .243, I don't know. Anyways, my question is what ammo would be best to reduce fur damage? Or if it is pointless and we should just use the same ammo I use for deer because anything out of the .243 is going to cause a lot of damage? I was looking on The Sportsman's Guide website and this is what they have:
Winchester 55 grain BST
Federal 55 grain NBT
Hornady 58 grain V-MAX
Any thoughts? I've tried searching the site for info on .243's, but can't seem to find too much.
