    .243 semi auto, ha ha, jaysus and expensive rifle to feed.
    Marvellous fun though :D

    Hornady SST's .243's is what Kieran1141 uses AFAIK, he would be the man to ask

    I reckon just about anyone should have a stock of various kinds of .243 ammo. I'd give John Lambert in Camolin a shout. Sound lad, good prices and wide variety in a lot of cartridges. I'd also call John Kavanagh in Fingal. Both will courier ammo to you. I know the latter John himself had good results with the 100gr PRVI stuff in .243 and was very happy with it. Think it's only about €14 a box. Might be worth thinking of for range days and plinking.

    Learning point - spend that bit extra.........

    I was looking at some privi in .308

    Not a single soft nose looked the same as the other and the lead was not concentric
    Hornady all the way for me!
