Frequently Asked Questions

Barnes .243 Ammo for Sale

What grain bullet is best for a 243?

For deer-sized game, 95-100 grain bullets work best in .243 Win. Popular choices include the 95 grain Nosler Ballistic Tip, Nosler Partition, and Federal Fusion. These weights deliver adequate energy past 400 yards at 2900-3000 fps. For varmints, use 55-75 grain bullets instead.

What is the best ammo for a 243 Win deer?

For deer hunting with a .243 Win, effective bullets range from 80–100 grains. The 85 grain Barnes TSX, including Black Hills Gold 85 gr TSX, is a top recommendation for its consistency, accuracy, and flat shooting. Nosler Partition and Sierra GameKing also work well. Prices typically run $37–$50 per box.

What is the difference between Barnes TSX and Ttsx bullets?

TTSX adds a polymer tip to the TSX, improving ballistic coefficient and initiating more consistent expansion. Both use the same all-copper construction. The TTSX shoots flatter at longer ranges; the TSX penetrates slightly deeper. For most hunting, differences are minimal. Choose based on game size and shooting distance.
