The Federal Varmint & Predator .243 Win 75 gr V-Max delivers the rapid expansion and flat trajectory hunters demand when working prairie dogs, ground squirrels, foxes and coyotes, and its part of Federals Varmint & Predator series engineered for small- to medium-game control. With the Hornady V-Max 75-grain projectile designed for explosive terminal performance and maximum weight retention for deep penetration, this load produces a muzzle velocity of about 3425 fps and muzzle energy near 1953 ft-lbs for quick, humane results at typical varmint distances. Youll appreciate the consistently uniform jacket and skived, pre-programmed nose that promote reliable, repeatable expansion shot after shot, while brass cases and dependable primers and propellant add the kind of ignition consistency that keeps hunters confident in the field. Ideal for precision varmint work from prone, bipod, or lightweight rifle setups, this .243 Winchester cartridge suits those who need flat-shooting ballistics, reliable feeding and terminal energy on small fast targets; made in the United States and well matched to scopes and rifles tuned for high-velocity .243 shooting.
