243 - 58 Grain Polymer Tip - Winchester Varmint X - 20 Rounds
What do you call a varmint that gets shot by a Winchester Varmint X 243 Win round? An x-varmint! Plenty of folks love the 243 for deer hunting, but everyone can agree that it’s a superlative varmint hunting round. This American-made cartridge is going to please everybody thanks to its accurate 58 grain polymer tipped projectile. Loaded to a muzzle velocity of 3,850 fps, its going to achieve the 0.254 G1 ballistic coefficient it needs to hit a 300-yard target with approximately 885 ft lbs of energy – more than enough power to finish off a rodent or coyote in one hit. This round’s bullet delivers exactly the kind of terminal fragmentation you want while hunting varmints and predators. When the polymer tip collides with its target, it immediately begins pressing downward into the lead core’s nose cavity while simultaneously upsetting the thin alloy jacket. After meeting with only minimal resistance the bullet begins bursting apart into shrapnel. It’s not the deep wound cavity you’d want for taking deer, but to small, thin-skinned critters it’s super deadly. This flat-shooting ammo is loaded with Winchester’s select brass, Boxer primers and clean-burning powder. Order a box or three today!
Bushmaster Gas Piston 90294
The Bushmaster Gas Piston System Rifles bring new levels of reliability to the “AR” type rifle platform by eliminating carbon build up, gas leaks and heat within the Upper Receiver. The Gas Piston System operates by tapping gas pressure off the barrel much like the systems found on AK-47s and FALs * Functions with a wider range of ammunition - less gas pressure - lower cyclic rate * Offers improved reliability and control - with cleaner operation and reduced recoil * Keeps carbon build up and powder residue from reaching - and fouling the Upper Receiver and Bolt Carrier * A Detented Plug in the Gas Block allows easy cleaning of the Systems’ Hard Chrome Plated Piston
