Hornady 28452 SST 7mm .284 162 gr Super Shock Tip Ammunition

In the realm of precision and power, the Hornady Super Shock Tip (SST) bullet stands as a paragon of ballistic engineering. Designed for those who demand performance without compromise, this projectile is tailored to deliver exceptional shock upon impact—a vital attribute when pursuing game across North America or even on African plains.

The 7mm SST® boasts a caliber diameter of .284 inches with a weighty presence at 162 grains, ensuring it carries substantial mass downrange. Its ballistic coefficient is an impressive .550, which translates to remarkable aerodynamic efficiency. This means your shot will maintain its velocity over distance, crucial for accuracy and energy retention.

Central to the SST's design is its sleek polymer tip. Not only does it enhance the bullet's ballistic coefficient by reducing drag, but it also initiates controlled expansion upon impact—vital for creating devastating wound channels that incapacitate swiftly and humanely.

The secant ogive profile further refines its aerodynamics while maintaining stability in flight. Coupled with a boattail base design, these features ensure that each shot travels flatter and hits harder—the undeniable physics of high-velocity projectiles.

Precision doesn't end there; the cannelure provides consistent crimping essential for reliable performance under various conditions. Working in concert with Hornady’s InterLock® ring technology, this feature guarantees that during expansion, both core and jacket remain securely bonded—retaining mass where it's needed most.

For hunters seeking an edge in their pursuit of whitetails or larger quarry like moose or antelope, the Hornady SST delivers not just potential but promise—a promise fulfilled every time you pull the trigger.
