The .243 Winchester (6.2×52mm) is a popular sporting rifle cartridge. Developed as a versatile dual purpose cartridge to hunt both medium game and small game alike, it "took whitetail hunting by storm"[3] when introduced in 1955, and remains one of the most popular whitetail deer cartridges. It is also commonly used for harvesting blacktail deer, pronghorns and mule deer with heavier rounds, and is equally suited to varmint hunting with lighter rounds. The .243 is based on a necked down .308 Winchester, introduced only three years earlier. Monolithic copper bullets of approximately 85 grains[4][5] or traditional lead rounds of 90 to 105 grains with controlled expansion designs are best suited for hunting medium game, while lighter rounds are intended for varmints.[6][7]

In at least ten U.S. states[8] and the United Kingdom,[9] the .243 or similar cartridges are the smallest bore cartridges that are legal for hunting deer. The cartridge can be extremely accurate to 300 yards (270 m) and beyond, but may not retain enough terminal energy to reliably drop medium game at that distance.[4][10][11][12] Highly experienced hunters use the .243 Winchester to routinely drop bucks up to 250 pounds (110 kg),[3] while young and/or female hunters can be just as capable with the .243 because of its very low recoil yet high velocity.[7][10][13] Besides hunting applications, the cartridge is popular with target and metallic silhouette shooters for those same recoil and velocity properties, with superb accuracy.[12]
