I have a 243 and a 22-250. I want to sew as little as possible. I'm hunting mostly yotes, foxes and bobcats. I live in NM and can't use full metal jackets. Someone suggested a v-max in the 243. I shot into a stack of papers and had a three inch hole coming out. Don't think that will work. What are my options. My wife would rather I not add to my gun collection but I'm not totally against the idea.

Appreciate any ideas.
