Common questions
Do I need a licence to buy .243 Winchester ammunition?
Yes. In NSW we can only sell .243 Win ammunition to a person holding a licence or permit for a firearm in that calibre, and we sight it at the counter.
Which .243 load is best for foxes?
Light, fast varmint bullets such as Hornady 58gr V-MAX, Norma 76gr Vermin Xtreme or Federal 75gr VMAX are the usual choice. All three are currently in stock.
Is .243 Win enough for deer?
It is widely used on smaller deer with 90–105 grain hunting bullets such as Sako Gamehead or Norma Oryx. Check the current hunting rules for the species and area you hunt.
How much does a box of .243 ammunition cost?
In-stock boxes start at $52 and a typical box is about $82. Premium bonded and lead-free loads run up to about $122.
Can you post .243 ammunition to me?
