  • Comments:  I was fox hunting with my remington bolt action .243 with a ten power simmons scope.  I was using federal 68 grain hollow points. I saw a fox sleeping along a fence line parallel to the road I was standing on. I whistled at it and it stood up. my range finder said it was 317 yards out. I chambered a round and sighted in on it.  My first shot went right over its ear, but he didnt move. I chambered a new round and let'er fly.  Needless to say, I didnt bother retrieving that fox.  through my scope I could see that the fox was nearly split in half from a Broadside chest shot!
