In the world of black powder firearms, innovation often comes slowly. Yet, Hornady has taken a significant leap forward with their SST-ML bullets, redefining what enthusiasts can expect from muzzleloading performance. By integrating their premium Super Shock Tip (SST) polymer tip with a sabot design, Hornady delivers centerfire-like precision and lethality to the traditional art of black powder hunting.
The SST-ML bullet is crafted for those who demand excellence in long-range shooting. The combination of a lightweight caliber bullet encased within the .50 caliber sabot allows for extended reach without compromising on accuracy or impact power. As it exits the barrel, the sabot discards seamlessly, ensuring that your projectile maintains its trajectory unencumbered by unnecessary drag.
One standout feature is the low-drag Super Shock Tip which initiates controlled expansion upon impact. This ensures that each shot gouges a wide and deep wound channel—vital for effective terminal performance against game. Moreover, these bullets are engineered to penetrate deeper while retaining more weight than typical projectiles; this translates into better sectional density and superior energy transfer at longer distances.
Shooting with Hornady's SST-ML means experiencing less recoil—a boon for shooters seeking comfort without sacrificing firepower. This line represents one of the highest-rated options available today for quick loading and unmatched reliability in muzzleloaders.
For those dedicated to mastering their craft with traditional rifles yet unwilling to compromise on modern ballistics science: look no further than Hornady’s innovative solution in black powder ammunition technology.
Features
- this line of black powder bullets raises the bar for muzzleloading performance to a height never dreamed before
- combining the super shock tip (sst) premium polymer tip with a sabot, hornady has truly brought centerfire performance to the black powder hunt. the sabot allows you to use a lighter caliber bullet for longer shots, while the sst point improves the ballistic coefficient for a faster, flatter flight. and, like the other sst bullets, the polymer tip initiates expansion on impact, giving these muzzleloading projectiles the ability to gouge a wide, deep wound channel for improved terminal performance
- shoot your muzzleloading rifle with less recoil, and deliver a projectile that penetrates better, retains more of its weight, and offers better sectional density (the ratio of the bullet's retained weight to its expanded diameter)
