The .243 Win. was originally a wildcat designed by Warren Page who necked down the .308 case in the early fifties. The goal was to make a light deer rifle which would have the advantages of the high velocity .22 calibers for varmint hunting. In 1955 Winchester made it a commercial round. For medium game the .243 Win. is a very popular round all over the world for hunting medium sized game. For this ammunition Norma uses a 100 gr Rapid expansion bullet that ensure deep penetration and uniform expansion. For this reason Norma Whitetail is the cartridge of choice.

For someone who doesn't load his own ammo these worked out great for me. The packaging protects the shells and the transit time, once they shipped was short. The only issue was the 3 month leadtime, but considering they are made in Sweden I'm thankful they arrived this quickly.

I bought my son a single shot .243 for Christmas. Not realizing that between COVID-19 and a newly elected Democratic President popular rifle ammunition is a thing of the past to acquire. Luckily I found this website! They had the last boxes known to exist! And they are in my possession after 4 days after purchase. What a deal!

Ive used this ammo in other calibers and it proves to be solid..I'm leaving a review more on OP than the ammo, 243 is impossible to find at an affordable price…op lists it cheaper than you can get it direct from the manufacturer, being my first order I got 10 percent off and free shipping. So thanks optics planet. I'll be looking for it to come back in stock to place another order.

I was able to find what I needed when I couldn't fund it anywhere else. Shipping was free and easy too. I would definitely buy from there again. If you're looking for something that you can't find anywhere else thus is the place to ordee.

These rounds were fantastic and did the job on my buck this year and dropped him on the spot. Good quality brass. Fast shipping and reasonably priced compared to some others on the market. My wife killed a deer with these as well and they performed flawlessly!
