In the realm of high-performance ammunition, Hornady's SST (Super Shock Tip) stands as a testament to innovation and excellence. Engineered for those who demand nothing short of superiority in their shooting endeavors, this bullet is crafted to deliver unmatched shock on impact with swift and reliable expansion—particularly at higher velocities.
The Hornady SST is renowned for its flat trajectory and deadly accuracy, making it an exceptional choice for hunting whitetails or tackling most North American game animals, from nimble antelope to formidable moose. Its prowess extends beyond borders, proving equally effective on African plains game of similar size. Upon contact, the SST creates a devastatingly large wound channel that speaks volumes about its stopping power.
The Hornady SST boasts a sleek polymer tip that not only enhances ballistic efficiency but also initiates controlled expansion upon impact. This design ensures your shot travels faster and hits harder—a crucial factor when precision counts.
The secant ogive boattail profile further boosts speed and downrange energy retention. It’s simple physics: bullets designed like these exhibit superior aerodynamic performance.
An integral cannelure provides accurate crimping consistency while working harmoniously with the InterLock® ring system. This innovative feature guarantees that during expansion, both core and jacket remain securely locked together—ensuring mass retention essential for creating dramatic wound channels every time you pull the trigger.
