The Hornady Custom 243 Winchester 87-grain V-Max delivers exceptional accuracy and explosive terminal performance for varmint hunting and precision shooting. This premium ammunition combines Hornady's precision-manufactured V-Max bullets with carefully selected powder charges and brass cases optimized for the 243 Winchester cartridge.

What Makes This Different

The V-Max bullet design features a polymer tip that initiates rapid expansion upon impact, creating devastating terminal effects on varmints while maintaining flat trajectory and consistent accuracy. Unlike standard soft-point bullets, the V-Max construction delivers fragmentation that stops immediately upon impact with small game, preventing over-penetration. Match-grade powder charges are precisely measured to deliver consistent velocities within 20 fps standard deviation.

Key Features

  • 87-grain V-Max bullet with polymer tip for rapid expansion and fragmentation
  • Muzzle velocity of 3,320 fps with 2,130 ft-lbs of energy
  • Premium brass cases with consistent wall thickness for reliable extraction
  • Match-grade powder charges for sub-MOA accuracy potential
  • Boxer-primed cases suitable for reloading applications
  • 20 rounds per box packaging for range sessions and hunting trips
  • Compatible with all 243 Winchester chamber specifications
Field testing demonstrates consistent 1.5 MOA accuracy at 100 yards from quality bolt-action rifles, making this ammunition suitable for prairie dog hunting, coyote control, and competitive varmint shooting disciplines. The flat trajectory allows for precise shot placement at extended ranges up to 400 yards with minimal holdover adjustment. Weather-resistant primer sealing ensures reliable ignition in temperature extremes from -20°F to 140°F.
