.243 THOUSANDTHS OF AN INCH DIAMETER BULLET. WIN SIMPLY IS SHORT FOR WINCHESTER, THE ORIGINATOR OF THIS CALIBER. THAT DOES NOT MEAN ONLY WINCHESTER MAKES GUNS IN THIS CALIBER. MANY GUN MAKERS CHAMBER THIS ROUND. IT IS A GOOD DEER, VARMINT, COYOTE ROUND.
Caliber is .243, buy ammo in .243.
The 08 is referencing the parent case, the .308, necked down to accept at .284 diameter bullet versus the .308 caliber. Other variations of the .308 case: .243 Win, .260 win
If you mean as an example .270 Win, the Win stands for Winchester as they were the originator of the cartridge.
That depends on the caliber of your rifle.The following listed prices are for a rifle that shows between 60%-80% of its original finish remaining and a good bore.The .308 Win will be between 350-500 dollars.The .243 Win. rifle will be between 550-850 dollars.The .358 Win caliber will be between 1,100-1,800 dollars.and the 284 Win.caliber will be between 850-1,650 dollars.
243
Do not attempt to use ammunition in a weapon not chambered for it.
.243 does, but neither one has what I would call a hard kick.
Which caliber?
the value depends on its age and condition. 243 win is not the most desirable caliber, its what my dad (who is a retired gun dealer) called a " Pennsylvania deer rifle". find a gun dealer who works at a local shop. Not gander mountain, they want you to trade it in cheap so they can sell it and ask them what the insurance value is.
they won 243
yes
In European racing and some American series, when you win a race you stand on a podium. When you win a NASCAR race you stand on the roof of your car.
