Hornady SST Bullets 6mm .243" 95 gr SST 100/ct

Hornady SST Bullets 6mm .243" 95 gr SST are purpose-designed rifle projectiles engineered for rapid, controlled expansion and consistent performance across a wide range of velocities. The SST designation stands for "Super Shock Tip"—a polymer-tipped design that combines a streamlined ballistic profile with terminal performance optimized for medium to large game. With a 95-grain weight in .243 caliber, these bullets deliver flat trajectories and precise accuracy characteristics valued by hunters and precision shooters working with 6mm bolt-action platforms.

The polymer tip serves multiple functions: it increases the ballistic coefficient for retained velocity downrange, seats reliably in magazine-fed systems, and initiates expansion upon impact. The 95-grain mass in 6mm/.243 Winchester provides a proven balance of velocity retention and sectional density, maintaining energy transfer through varied shot angles while keeping recoil impulse manageable in lighter-recoiling platforms. This bulk quantity of 100 rounds per box makes the SST practical for serious shooters building loads for hunting seasons, load development, or extended range sessions. The .243" diameter matches standard 6mm/.243 Winchester chambers—verify your rifle's specifications before purchase.

These bullets suit hunters pursuing whitetail, mule deer, antelope, and similar North American game where shot placement and consistent expansion matter. The .243 Winchester remains a popular choice for riflemen seeking low recoil without sacrificing effective range, and the SST's design addresses that demand. Reloaders should note these are component bullets requiring powder, primers, and cases—not loaded ammunition. Whether you're handloading for precision hunting loads or building match-grade practice ammunition, Hornady SST bullets deliver the terminal reliability expected from a major ammunition manufacturer.
