For those of us that don’t reload…what’s the “best” varmint store bought ammo for 1:9?

I reload for 3, 1-9 243's, and they all love 87's more than 58's. I haven't tried anything in between, or tried any factory. 95 gr sst's also shoot amazing. These are gas guns.

I've been keeping an eye on what's available and kind of waiting for someone to offer a bulk deal kind of like what Dogtown did a few years ago. I think over the next couple of years we'll see some pretty good deals.

Same here 204AR, I am a big fan of 243 and my Ruger 243 Go Wild will handle the 58 and the 87 with virtually equal results. That is a fairly big spread in grain weight but, the results prove out.

My 1:8 Tikka seems to like just about everything I have tried in it. Hornady Superformance with the 75 grain V-max have performed great. Superformance 58 grain V-max Is what I finished up my season with and went 3 for 3 with those.

I bought 10 boxes of HSM Varmint 75 Grain V-max because I got them at a good price. They shoot great as well. They are advertised at 3300 FPS, which is around 300 FPS slower than the Hornady load. I haven't shot a coyote with those yet, but I don't see why they won't perform.
