Hornady's SST (Super Shock Tip) delivers devastating expansion and reliable performance on North American game from antelope to moose. The polymer tip boosts ballistic coefficient for flatter, faster trajectories and harder-hitting impact.
The Hornady SST (Super Shock Tip) represents decades of hunting bullet engineering distilled into one proven design. These 95-grain projectiles are engineered to deliver tremendous shock on impact while expanding quickly and reliably—particularly at the higher velocities modern rifles deliver.
Polymer Tip Design The sleek polymer tip serves dual purposes: it increases the ballistic coefficient for flatter trajectories and longer-range energy retention, and it initiates controlled expansion upon impact for consistent, devastating wound channels.
Secant Ogive Boattail Profile This proven geometry gives hunters the speed and ballistic efficiency that modern hunting demands. Bullets that travel faster hit harder—and the SST's profile ensures your shots maintain energy downrange.
InterLock Ring This exclusive Hornady feature locks the bullet's core and jacket together during expansion. The result: the SST retains mass and energy needed for dramatic wound channels and reliable performance on game.
Cannelure A crimping groove that provides accurate, consistent seating in your reloading dies while working in concert with the InterLock ring to control expansion.
Flat shooting and deadly accurate, the SST is an ideal choice for whitetails and most North American game animals—from antelope to moose and similar-sized African plains game. Hunters appreciate the combination of velocity, accuracy, and the devastatingly large wound channels these bullets create.
