Notes from the Lab: .243 Winchester - Load Data
Notes from the lab : . 243 winchester The . 243 winchester is easily the most popular of all of the 6mm cartridges. Winchester introduced it in 1955 in the Model 70 bolt-action rifle, but its real history began when gun writer Warren Page created a .24-caliber wildcat based on a .308 Winchester case. This created considerable interest in a small caliber, dual purpose deer and varmint cartridge, and when Winchester commercialized it the demand had already been created, which seemed to almost guarantee its success. Initially it was offered with 80- and 100-grain loads (for varmints and deer, respectively), but today ammunition companies have developed much more versatile loads that have dramatically improved it for both applications.
For handloading lightweight bullets weighing 58 through 75 grains, top performing (accuracy and velocity) powders included Hodgdon Varget, H-4895, Accurate AAC-2520, Alliant RL-15, Vihtavuori N-140, IMR-4064 and IMR-4831.
