Details

A great whitetail cartridge, some may consider the .243 just about on the cusp of true big game performance, but this load proves that the caliber is right for the task at hand. The SST (Super Shock Tip) projectile by Hornady is a perfect pairing for the caliber and the other quality components that Fiocchi offers for the load. The Hornady SST is a bullet that offered a number of significant improvements over other projectiles when it debuted in 1998; and is still a very high end choice. Hence, the reason Fiocchi chose it when they have plenty of options to choose from, including their own projectile.

The multiple jacket/core connective mechanics and the special 3% antimony alloy of the core, as well as the polymer tip ensure rapid, reliable expansion, along with very good jacket retention; with the aim to create pass through shots on intermediate game and larger. The reliable seating depth of the cannalured bullet ensure good velocities and consistent cartridge length to improve accuracy and reliability. 95 grains of fast moving, high ballistic coefficient jacketed lead – the bullet is made specifically to create a huge impact on entry to improve the size of the wound channel. The Boxer primed brass makes the round easily reloadable as well.

A: Rick, This is a great question. After looking into the cartridge this is what I can tell you for sure. This round is rated at 2,960 FPS with a muzzle energy of 1,945 ft. lbs. The round is a Hornady SST (Super Shock Tip) projectile weighing in at 95 grains. It does not appear to be bonded but I cannot find anything definitive. The round features a boat-tail base, polymer tip, tapered jacket, gilding metal jacket, cannelure (for consistent loading), 3% lead antimony core, and the patented Interlock ring to control expansion and retain mass. This projectile is designed for medium sized thin skinned game. I am including a link if you would like to review more information on the projectile itself. I know that this does not answer all of your questions but I hope that it helps you make in informed decision about the ammo you are choosing to put in your firearm. Thanks. https://www.hornady.com/bullets/sst-(super-shock-tip)#!/
