Hornady's SST (Super Shock Tip) .308 150-grain bullets deliver controlled expansion and devastating wound channels. Polymer tip boosts ballistic coefficient; InterLock ring keeps core and jacket locked during expansion. 100 per box.
The Hornady SST (Super Shock Tip) represents decades of hunting bullet engineering. These .308 150-grain projectiles are purpose-designed to deliver tremendous shock on impact while expanding quickly and reliably—particularly at the velocities typical of .300 Savage rifles.
Polymer Tip Design The sleek polymer tip serves dual purposes: it increases ballistic coefficient for flatter trajectories and better downrange energy retention, and upon impact, it initiates controlled expansion for maximum effectiveness.
Secant Ogive Boattail Profile This aerodynamic design gives hunters the speed and ballistic efficiency they need. Faster bullets hit harder—it's physics. The boattail profile reduces drag and maintains velocity downrange.
InterLock Ring This exclusive Hornady feature ensures the core and jacket remain locked solid during expansion. This controlled separation creates devastatingly large wound channels while the bullet retains the mass and energy needed for reliable penetration on game.
Cannelure The crimping groove provides accurate and consistent bullet seating in reloaded ammunition and works in concert with the InterLock ring to control expansion.
Flat-shooting and deadly accurate, the SST is an ideal choice for whitetail deer as well as most North American game animals from antelope to moose. It's equally effective on similar-sized African plains game. The combination of controlled expansion and retained mass makes it a trusted choice for hunters who demand reliability.
