Make sure you do yourself a favour some time and work up a load for the 220 taipan or hornady. You won't believe what they do on all sorts of critters!! And they have a half decent BC. of 221, similar to .224 pills. I use 78grns 2208 in my gun, my mate runs 80grns for the same 3100fps. Thats only 4700 ft/lb muzzle energy. And something the size of a fox with a frontal shot would use 100% of that. They blow big time for a big cal.

Hi 300RUM

I have a good load already done for him using the 220 Hornady, and yes they work wonders :twisted:
