Hornady American Whitetail .243 Winchester 100 Grain Interlock Boat Tail Soft Point

Hornady American Whitetail .243 Winchester, 100 grain InterLock boat tail soft point. The deer weight, with a boat tail base.

Who it’s for

.243 deer hunters. 100 grain is the heavy end of the caliber and the right choice on game, since light .243 bullets are built for varmints and come apart too readily on anything bigger.

The boat tail is the detail worth noticing. A tapered base cuts drag, so the bullet holds its speed better downrange than a flat based one. In a cartridge as flat shooting as the .243 that extends its useful range a little further.

What you get

• 100 grain InterLock boat tail soft point
• Tapered base for better velocity retention
• The correct bullet weight for deer in this caliber
• Mild recoil, easy for a new hunter to shoot well

Slow twist .243s

Older .243 rifles sometimes have slow twist barrels that will not settle a 100 grain bullet properly. If your groups are disappointing, check the twist rate before blaming the ammunition or yourself.

The .243 rewards patience. Wait for broadside and it kills cleanly. Take an ambitious angle and it can let you down.

This ammunition ships straight to your door wherever state and local law allows.
