The heavier Viper choice in the Gold Country .243 Winchester family

This 90-grain load is for the hunter who prefers additional bullet mass over the higher published-data velocity of the 80-grain Viper. Both use the same conventional flat-base soft-point spitzer concept, making the decision one of weight, velocity and the way the individual rifle handles each load.

Available to order. This small-batch ammunition normally ships within seven business days.

Why choose the 90-grain Viper

Choose the 90-grain Viper when the heavier of the two Viper options better fits the intended hunting conditions. Choose the 80-grain load when lower mass and higher published-data velocity are the priority, or the 95-grain Gold Country soft point when moving to the heaviest current GCA hunting choice in this group.
