Hornady Superformance .300 Winchester Magnum 180 grain SST rifle ammunition is purpose-engineered to optimize ballistic performance for both hunters and precision shooters. This load utilizes advanced, progressive propellants to achieve a velocity increase of up to 200 feet per second over conventional loads, critically, without introducing increased chamber pressure, mitigating perceived recoil, or escalating muzzle blast. This results in a substantial performance enhancement for the platform.
Key Features
- Optimized Velocity Profile: Engineered for elevated projectile speeds, facilitating flatter trajectories and superior downrange energy retention, enhancing terminal performance.
- Substantial Performance Consistency: Propellant formulation minimizes temperature sensitivity and reduces barrel fouling, ensuring repeatable shot-to-shot consistency critical for precision applications.
- SST (Super Shock Tip) Projectile: Incorporates the Hornady Super Shock Tip bullet, precisely engineered for controlled expansion upon impact and deep, reliable penetration. The polymer tip significantly improves ballistic coefficient, reduces drag, and initiates rapid, controlled expansion crucial for ethical game harvesting across medium to large game species.
This .300 Winchester Magnum ammunition is suitable for diverse operational requirements, ranging from ethical game harvesting to extending the effective engagement range of a precision rifle. Hornady Superformance provides a direct, measurable performance upgrade without mandating firearm modifications or exceeding SAAMI pressure limits.
