SIG SAUER Elite Copper .243 Winchester 80-Grain Ammo

Description

SIG SAUER .243 Winchester 80-Grain Elite Copper Hunting Ammunition

SIG SAUER Elite Copper Hunting ammunition is built for hunters who want flat trajectory, dependable accuracy, and controlled terminal performance from the .243 Winchester cartridge. This load uses an 80-grain solid-copper hunting projectile and is packaged in boxes of 20 rounds.

The factory SKU is E243H1-20; the store’s manufacturer part number is presented in normalized form as E243H120. SIG SAUER’s current specifications list a muzzle velocity of 3,425 feet per second, muzzle energy of 2,083 foot-pounds, and a G1 ballistic coefficient of 0.320 when tested from a 24-inch barrel.

Solid-Copper Hunting Projectile

The 80-grain copper projectile is designed for hunting applications where penetration, retained weight, and controlled expansion matter. Its relatively light weight for the .243 Winchester helps produce high initial velocity and a flat trajectory across practical hunting distances. The streamlined profile supports stable flight, while the copper construction is intended to maintain structural integrity as the projectile encounters tissue and bone.

This combination can suit hunters who value quick handling and manageable recoil while still requiring a purpose-built hunting bullet. As with any hunting ammunition, appropriate use depends on the game pursued, shot placement, distance, local regulations, and the performance limitations of the cartridge and firearm.

Consistent Cartridge Construction

Nickel-plated brass cases provide added resistance to corrosion and can promote smooth feeding and extraction. Factory-loaded primers and propellants are selected to support consistent ignition and velocity. The 20-round package gives hunters enough ammunition to confirm zero, check point of impact, and retain cartridges from the same lot for field use.

Published ballistic figures are reference values rather than guaranteed performance in every rifle. Actual velocity, energy, trajectory, and point of impact vary with barrel length, chamber dimensions, temperature, elevation, firearm condition, and other factors. Always verify trajectory and zero with the specific rifle and optic before hunting.
