243 Win – 100 gr SP – Hornady Whitetail (8047) – 200 Rounds

The .243 Winchester 100 gr SP Hornady Whitetail (8047) load delivers dependable performance for hunters who value accuracy, controlled expansion, and results in the field. It uses a Soft Point (SP) projectile designed to expand reliably on impact while maintaining adequate penetration. Because of this, the load suits buyers focused on deer and medium-game hunting. Many hunters trust .243 Winchester for its flat trajectory and manageable recoil, especially in lightweight hunting rifles.

Hornady loads the 8047 to a muzzle velocity of 2,960 fps and a muzzle energy of 1,945 ft-lbs from standard test barrels. These ballistics create a fast, flat-shooting profile. As a result, shooters benefit from reduced holdover and confident shot placement at common hunting distances. In addition, the 100-grain bullet weight balances expansion and penetration, which supports consistent performance on whitetail-sized game. Consequently, hunters experience predictable terminal results across varied terrain.

This product ships as 20 rounds per box and 10 boxes per case (200 rounds total). Therefore, buyers receive sufficient ammunition for sight-in, preseason practice, and full hunting seasons. Hornady manufactures Whitetail ammunition with reloadable brass cases and non-corrosive Boxer primers, ensuring reliable ignition and smooth feeding. Furthermore, Hornady’s quality standards emphasize uniform velocities and dependable accuracy from shot to shot.

While optimized for hunting, the .243 Winchester 100 gr SP Hornady Whitetail (8047) also appeals to shooters who want proven ballistics and confidence in the field. Ultimately, it offers speed, accuracy, and trusted Hornady performance for serious hunters.
