Alleyyooper had a good suggestion. Sounds like it works out for him. Loading them down sounds like a good idea. IMO a lot of the real damage is from the hydrostatic shock and not the bullet itself, exempting bullets that fragment easy. I've gut shot a few Fox and Yotes, something about the stomach contents of a meat eater gags me up pretty bad.

I'd use a Deer bullet, Core Lokt or Accubond and hopefully you don't catch a bone wrong and it holds together. I have no idea how the interlock 100 grn .243 SPBT Deer loads perform, sometimes it is just trial and error.

Most of my Fox shots are bang flop and little damage done. I am careful of my shot, I like to catch them mouse hunting broad side. Though I have been lucky and shot a few head on and not done much damage.

Hard to tell sometimes what you have for a pelt, they get soaking wet early morning hunting mice in the tall grass. You don't really know what you have until you dry them out and brush them.
