Hornady CX 6mm .243 80 gr Copper Solid Polymer Tip - 50/Box

The Hornady CX is a monolithic, lead-free hunting bullet built from a one-piece copper alloy construction that resists core-jacket separation and delivers deep penetration with impressive weight retention. Sized for the popular 6mm / .243 bore, this 80 grain projectile is topped with a polymer tip for streamlined flight and reliable expansion on impact, making it an outstanding choice for medium game in the 50-300 lb class.

Designed for handloaders who demand a tough, lead-free bullet that holds together on tough animals, the Copper Solid (CX) retains up to 95% of its weight after expansion and won't leave lead fragments buried in meat. The polymer tip drives expansion even at lower velocities, while the monolithic copper-alloy shank drives deep, straight penetration through dense muscle and bone. Each box contains 50 projectiles, packaged by Hornady to the same quality standard as their factory ammunition.

With a G1 ballistic coefficient of .273 and sectional density of .194, the CX offers handloaders a well-balanced projectile for hunting-style velocities from .243 Winchester and similar 6mm platforms. The 0.243" bullet diameter matches standard 6mm bore dimensions, and the lead-free copper alloy construction makes it an excellent choice for areas with lead restrictions on hunting projectiles.
