The .243 Winchester is a favorite cartridge.

Black Hills Gold .243 Winchester Ammunition - Product Tests

 

My father was probably most responsible for this; his deer rifle was a Winchester Model 100 .243. He used it for groundhogs and deer; it was about all the rifle he needed. I’ve probably killed more game with a .243 than any other cartridge. Given an affinity for it, and the fact that my wife and son both have .243s, I’m always on the lookout for good factory ammunition options.

Black Hills recently sent several boxes of its Gold line of ammunition in .243 Winchester loaded with Hornady 95-grain SST bullets. About 10 years ago, I was deer hunting in Texas, and I had a .243. The other hunters in camp were using .308s, and they all said I was under gunned. I took a nice 10-pointer at about 180 yards and a doe beyond 300 using Remington ammunition loaded with 95-grain AccuTip bullets. What some hunters may not know is the AccuTip bullet is actually an SST bullet provided to Remington – with a greenish tip instead of a red tip – by Hornady. At .243 Winchester velocities, it’s an excellent deer bullet.
