Hey guys, I'm starting to play with my .243 as the "back up" for a pig hunt this winter. It's a tikka t3x, 1/10" twist. What I see mostly recommended is ~100gr soft points or bonded bullets. This rifle doesn't seem to like factory or reloaded 100gr bullets, and shoots the factory fed fusion 95 gr or Hornady 95 sst's okay-ish. It shoots factory Hornady 75 gr VMax into bugholes. I have a few pounds of RL-16, and plenty of brass. Any recommendations for a 75-90 gr bullet for pigs, I see there's an 85gr partition, and a few 90gr soft points.

Thanks guys!
