Hornady 243 Cal 6mm 58gr V-Max Heavy Jacket (Bulk / OEM)

Hornady 243 Cal 6mm 58gr V-Max Heavy Jacket

The Hornady 243 Cal 6mm 58gr V-MAX^® Heavy Jacket delivers outstanding varmint performance through a combination of advanced design, high-quality materials, and precision manufacturing. Built for accuracy and explosive terminal results, this bullet is ideal for reloaders seeking to maximize velocity and on-target energy in .243 Winchester and other 6mm chamberings. Its polymer tip and optimized jacket thickness ensure controlled expansion and rapid fragmentation, even at lower velocities.

Whether you’re shooting varmints at long range or dialing in a custom hunting load, the 243 Cal 6mm 58gr V-MAX^® stands out for its ability to produce flat trajectories and repeatable accuracy. The match-grade AMP^® jacket enhances concentricity, promoting superior in-flight stability and reliable terminal performance. Hornady^® has engineered this bullet with an aerodynamic profile and a consistent polymer tip, ensuring that each shot reaches its target with minimal drag and maximum precision.

Each bullet utilizes a swaged lead core built to deliver dramatic fragmentation. The cavity beneath the polymer tip allows for energy build-up and a violent expansion on impact. This makes the 58gr V-MAX^® an excellent choice for smaller game or predator control. Designed to perform at speeds down to 1600 fps, this round gives reloaders flexibility across a wide range of rifles and barrel lengths.

Offered in bulk bullets packaging for value-conscious reloaders, these .243 Cal projectiles are a go-to option for high-volume shooting sessions. Whether you’re loading hundreds of rounds for prairie dog season or building a precision coyote setup, the Hornady 243 Cal 6mm 58gr V-MAX^® with a heavy jacket delivers premium performance every time. Trusted by hunters, shooters, and reloaders nationwide, it’s a consistent favorite for its explosive results and exceptional quality.

Product Features

POLYMER TIP

The secret to the explosive terminal performance of the V-MAX^® is a hollow cavity resting between the tip’s shaft and the body of the bullet. Upon impact, the stiff shaft builds up speed and energy before driving into the core, causing the entire package to rapidly expand to violent fragmentation, even at low terminal velocities.

HIGHER BALLISTIC COEFFICIENT

Hornady^® combines the sharp, pointed polymer tip with the most aerodynamic profile for a high ballistic coefficient. The V-MAX^® profile also provides the maximum bearing surface for added in-flight stability.

SWAGED LEAD CORE

The swaging process allows precise core formation up and around the tip, with a cavity under the tip’s stem. This allows the tip to build energy before smashing into the core, causing dramatic fragmentation of the core and jacket.

PRECISE BOATTAIL & FLATBASE DESIGNS

Utilizing the proper base design provides incredible in-flight stability for long-range shooting.
