So, I bought the eldest of the little Dongs a 243 for Christmas and I can't find any ammo. I'm looking for the Federal Premium Vital Shok 100grain Nosler Partition as recommended by my gun dealer, but would settle for something comparable. He gave us what he had - 12 rounds, but we burned that up with the quickness. I'm sure I can borrow some, if need be, but thought I'd reach out to the OB brethren and see if you new of anyone carrying the ammo in the store or online.

TIA

Looks to be a shortage on the ammo but try Here. It may be sold already but it's worth a shot

I'm in Monroe and most likely going to pass by Simmons today. I will look there for you and let you know. If they have some, I will pick them up for you.

The only 243 I'd found online was the Winchester Supreme at BassPro.

I also found some at Dick's sporting goods.

Edit, I found Herter's 243 100 Grain SP at BassPro.

I have some Hornady 100 gr BTSP. My gun can't shoot it, comes out tumbling. It's your if you need it.
