Hornady Superformance delivers 100-200 fps velocity boost over conventional ammo using advanced propellants at normal charge weights. Achieves 2910 fps with the 200gr soft point bullet, producing flatter trajectories and superior accuracy without increased recoil.
Hornady's Superformance line represents a fundamental shift in how modern rifle ammunition achieves superior ballistic performance. Rather than relying on the brute-force approach of heavy powder charges and larger case capacities, Superformance employs specialized propellant formulations that deliver measurably better results with standard charge weights.
Velocity and Energy: This .35 Whelen load drives the 200-grain soft point bullet to 2910 feet per second, generating 3,760 foot-pounds of muzzle energy. That's 100 to 200 fps faster than conventional ammunition in the same caliber—without the penalty of increased recoil or muzzle blast.
Trajectory and Accuracy: The velocity increase translates directly to flatter trajectories and reduced wind drift. You'll see measurably improved accuracy across a broad range of shooting conditions and temperatures.
The InterLock soft point bullet combines proven construction with reliable expansion. The design ensures deep penetration and consistent performance on medium to large game, making this load suitable for hunting applications where controlled expansion matters.
Hornady's commitment to ammunition excellence spans over seven decades. Superformance represents the culmination of that expertise—delivering genuine performance gains through intelligent engineering rather than excessive powder charges.
