Hornady 243 Cal 6mm 87gr BTHP (Bulk / OEM)

Hornady 243 Cal 6mm 87gr BTHP

The Hornady 243 Cal 6mm 87gr BTHP (Boat Tail Hollow Point) Varmint bullet is a precision-engineered option built for flat-shooting accuracy, explosive expansion, and consistent terminal performance. Whether you’re dialing in shots on prairie dogs at long range or eliminating coyotes on the move, this bullet delivers the level of performance varmint hunters demand. Designed with a streamlined profile and classic construction, it embodies the original varmint bullet legacy founded by Joyce Hornady himself.

This bullet’s 87-grain weight and aerodynamic shape provide a stable flight path with minimal drag, while the boattail base improves ballistic coefficient and wind resistance for enhanced accuracy at distance. The hollow point tip allows for rapid expansion upon impact, ensuring maximum energy transfer and terminal fragmentation even at modest velocities—a major asset when shooting suppressed or at long range.

At the heart of its performance is Hornady’s match-grade AMP^® (Advanced Manufacturing Process) bullet jacket, which delivers exceptional concentricity and wall thickness uniformity. Unlike plated bullets, the AMP^® jacket is drawn from gilding metal, ensuring consistent expansion and reliable flight characteristics shot after shot. This results in tight groupings and clean drops on varmints from close quarters to the far end of your rifle’s effective range.

The Hornady 243 Cal 6mm 87gr BTHP is suitable for use in a wide range of .243 Winchester, 6mm Remington, and other 6mm-based platforms. It pairs well with classic bolt-action rifles and modern precision builds alike, making it a favorite among reloaders seeking versatility and terminal reliability. This bullet is also available in bulk bullets packaging, giving high-volume varmint hunters a cost-effective way to maintain match-level performance in quantity.
