Hornady SST - The Pinnacle of Precision and Power
The Hornady Super Shock Tip (SST) is a testament to the art and science of bullet design. Engineered for those who demand excellence, this projectile offers an unparalleled combination of speed, accuracy, and impact shock—essential traits when your quarry includes everything from whitetails to moose across North America or similar-sized African plains game.
The .270 Caliber with a .277" diameter and 130-grain weight promises flat shooting trajectories that are both deadly accurate and devastating upon arrival. At its core lies the sleek polymer tip which serves dual purposes: enhancing ballistic coefficient for greater efficiency while initiating controlled expansion upon impact. This ensures not only penetration but also significant energy transfer for maximum effect.
Further amplifying its performance is the secant ogive boattail profile—a proven design that enhances downrange velocity and kinetic energy retention. It’s simple physics; bullets that travel faster hit harder, delivering more decisive results where it counts most.
An integral part of the SST's capability is its cannelure feature which provides precise crimping consistency in conjunction with Hornady’s InterLock ring technology. This innovative system locks the core and jacket together during expansion, ensuring mass retention so crucial to creating large wound channels capable of stopping power on contact.
