Sierra 6MM .243 CALIBER 80 GR. BLITZ SBT #1515
This 80-grain #1515 Blitz bullet is reliably frangible in rifles chambered for either the 6mm Remington or 243 Winchester cartridges and has no peer as a varmint bullet at the velocities delivered by these cartridges. Even at extreme ranges, the Sierra Spitzer boat tail shape ensures a flat course, strong resistance to crosswinds and vertical winds, and high-energy transmission. This bullet was developed in response to the requests of multiple varmint hunters and will bring out the best of both the shooter and his rifle in all varmint hunting situations. The softcore and thin jacket of this 80-grain #1515 Blitz bullet in handguns will provide positive expansion at handgun velocities, as well as the accuracy and ballistic efficiency of the popular Sierra boat tail shape.
The #1515 was introduced in 1994.
