243 Win – 55 gr Ballistic Silvertip – Winchester (SBST243) – 200 Rounds

Varmint and predator hunters want a flat-shooting load that drops coyotes, groundhogs and prairie dogs cleanly at long range. Winchester Ballistic Silvertip 243 Win 55 gr, MPN SBST243, is a fast 243 Win varmint ammo choice built for that work. This listing is a bulk case of 200 rounds, enough for high-volume prairie dog days, a season of calling coyotes, and plenty of practice at distance. It is a common answer when customers ask what 243 load works best for coyotes and small varmints.

The 55 gr Ballistic Silvertip is the varmint version of Winchester’s polymer-tipped bullet, designed to fragment rapidly on impact. Rapid fragmentation means quick, humane kills on small animals and less risk of pass-through than a heavier, tougher big-game bullet. Winchester rates this load at 3,910 fps and 1,867 ft-lbs of energy. That high velocity from a light bullet produces a flat trajectory, so you spend less time guessing holdover on long shots across a field or pasture, and the light recoil makes it easier to spot your own hits through the scope.

This 243 Win ammo fits any rifle chambered in 243 Winchester, from bolt-action varmint rifles to lightweight hunting rifles. It is built for varmint and predator hunting, including coyotes, foxes, groundhogs and prairie dogs, and for ranchers and farmers who deal with pests at long range. Because varmint hunting often means a lot of shooting, buying the 200-round bulk case of 243 varmint ammo keeps your per-round cost down and lets you stay with one load, so your zero and your drop chart stay the same all season.

Winchester Ballistic Silvertip 243 Win 55 gr is made in the USA and is new production ammunition, not reloads. It is loaded in brass cases with boxer primers, and it is non-corrosive, so your rifle needs only normal cleaning. The brass is reloadable, which makes it worth saving if you handload for your 243. The case ships in the original factory packaging as 10 boxes of 20 rounds, for 200 rounds total.
