Hornady InterLock .308 180-Grain Boat Tail Spire Point Bullets

These .308-caliber bullets represent the pinnacle of traditional rifle ammunition design, engineered specifically for hunters who demand reliable, consistent performance in the field.

Key Features

InterLock Ring Technology The signature InterLock ring is embedded directly into the bullet's core, creating a mechanical lock between the jacket and core. This design ensures the two components remain bonded during expansion, preventing the jacket separation that can occur with conventional bullets. The result is superior weight retention and energy transfer to your target.

Controlled Expansion Design The tapered jacket features precisely controlled thickness that allows consistent, predictable expansion across a wide velocity range. Strategic inner grooves weaken the upper jacket section, promoting uniform mushrooming from close range to extended distances.

One-Piece Core Construction Unlike divided-core designs, the solid core construction resists fragmentation and maintains structural integrity through impact and expansion. This contributes to deeper penetration and more effective energy delivery.

Ballistic Performance

  • Caliber: .30 (7.62mm)
  • Diameter: .308"
  • Weight: 180 grains
  • Ballistic Coefficient: .425
  • Sectional Density: .271
  • Boat Tail Spire Point profile for aerodynamic flight

Reloading Features The cannelure provides a secure, consistent crimping surface and works in concert with the InterLock ring to maintain core-jacket integrity throughout the firing sequence.

Ideal Applications

These bullets excel for big game hunting where controlled expansion and deep penetration are essential. The 180-grain weight is particularly effective in standard .308 Winchester rifles, delivering the terminal performance serious hunters expect.

Packaging
