Hornady Superformance .270 Win 140gr SST

Hornady Superformance .270 Winchester

Hornady Superformance ammunition represents a significant advancement in rifle ballistics. By utilizing progressive propellants, this ammunition achieves velocities up to 200 feet per second faster than conventional loads—without increasing chamber pressure, recoil, or muzzle blast.

Performance Characteristics

Velocity and Trajectory: The 140-grain Super Shock Tip bullet exits the muzzle at approximately 3,090 feet per second, delivering a flatter trajectory and reduced wind drift compared to standard ammunition.

Bullet Design: The Super Shock Tip (SST) combines a polymer tip for consistent expansion with a boat-tail design for improved aerodynamics and energy retention downrange.

Key Features

• Efficient Propellants: Progressive powder formulation maximizes velocity without pressure penalties
• Reduced Recoil: Achieves higher velocities without the punishing recoil of magnum loads
• Temperature Stable: Consistent performance across varying environmental conditions
• Minimal Fouling: Clean-burning propellants reduce barrel fouling
• Reliable Accuracy: Maintains precision despite velocity increases

Suitable Applications

This ammunition is well-suited for hunting medium to large game at extended ranges. The combination of velocity, trajectory, and terminal performance makes it an excellent choice for deer, elk, and similar-sized game.
