My buddy that has a Remington .243 uses Winchester Soft Points in 100 grain. His gun jams up if you try to shoot Remington Core Lockts in it so that's why he uses the Winchesters. Honestly, just use whatever your gun shoots best. I've read nothing but good about those Federals in all rifles when it comes to shooting deer so if your rifle shoots good with them they would be a fine bullet to use.
