In the years following World War II, the civilian market was flooded with a ready supply of cheap surplus munitions. Although it was great for target shooters, this oversaturation resulted in few quality options for hunters needing to put food on the table. In 1949 Joyce Hornady set out to manufacture premium quality ammunition components that were highly accurate and effective. Decades later Hornady is now a cornerstone of the firearm industry and continue to develop new and improved products that further the capabilities of modern firearms. If you're looking for quality ammunition to accomplish the task at hand, you can't go wrong if you choose a box with the Hornady name printed on it.

Hornady's American Whitetail line of ammunition is tailored to effectively harvest game animals. This .243 Winchester offering is loaded with their InterLock boat tail soft point and will make quick work of that trophy buck that keeps hitting your feeder. Like all soft points, the exposed lead tip will mushroom on impact to rapidly expand the size of the projectile. What sets this one apart is the InterLock ring that mechanically locks the jacket to the core for incredible weight retention. Instead of breaking into smaller pieces, keeping the bullet together creates a superior wound channel and increases your odds for a clean kill. This 100 grain projectile has a velocity of 2960 feet per second with 1945 foot pounds of energy at the muzzle. In typical Hornady fashion, these were loaded using premium brass cases and non-corrosive boxer primers. Don't trust the outcome of your hunts to run of the mill ammo, stock up on the good stuff with this 200 round case of Hornady .243 American Whitetail.
