Description
Short for "Super Shock Tip" the Hornady SST is designed to deliver tremendous shock on impact while expanding quickly and reliably, particularly at higher velocities. Flat shooting and deadly accurate, it's an idea bullet for whitetails, as well as most North American game animals from antelope to moose and similar-sized African plains game. The SST creates a devastatingly large wound channel.
Features & Specifications
- Powder - Each cartridge is loaded to ensure optimal pressure, velocity and consistency, from lot to lot.
- Highest Quality Brass - Much of the brass is made by Hornady, the rest carefully selected for reliable feeding, corrosion resistance, hardness and the ability to withstand maximum chamber pressure.
- Primers - Like the powder, each primer is carefully matched to individual loads, and specially selected for their ability to quickly, completely and reliably ignite the powder charge.
- SST Bullets
- Polymer Tip - The sleek polymer tip increases the ballistic coefficient, making it more efficient. Upon impact, the tip also initiates controlled expansion
- Secant Ogive, Boattail Profile - It's a fact: bullets that travel faster hit harder. The Hornady secant ogive gives hunters the speed, ballistic efficiency and downrange energy they're looking for
- Cannelure - Provides accurate and consistent crimping, and also works with the InterLock ring to control expansion
- Interlock Ring - Ensures the core and jacket remain locked solid during expansion, so the SST retains the mass and energy needed for dramatic wound channels
