Hornady SST 7mm .284 154gr Super Shock Tip Bullets - 100 Count

The Hornady SST 7mm .284 154-grain bullets deliver exceptional expansion and weight retention for medium to large game hunting. These Super Shock Tip projectiles combine proven ballistic performance with consistent accuracy across hunting distances.

What Makes This Different

The SST design features Hornady's polymer tip that initiates controlled expansion upon impact while maintaining the bullet's ballistic coefficient during flight. Unlike traditional soft-point bullets that can deform in the magazine, the SST's tip remains intact until target contact. The InterLock ring mechanically locks the core and jacket together, preventing separation and ensuring 75-85% weight retention even at high velocities.

Key Features

• 154-grain weight optimized for 7mm cartridges with 1:9.5" to 1:10" twist rates
• Polymer tip increases ballistic coefficient to 0.525 (G1) for flatter trajectory
• InterLock ring prevents core-jacket separation during expansion
• Secant ogive profile reduces drag and wind drift at extended ranges
• Cannelure provides consistent crimp placement and controlled expansion
• Boat-tail base design improves long-range stability and accuracy
• Compatible with standard 7mm cartridges including 7mm-08, .280 Rem, and 7mm Rem Mag

Field testing shows the SST maintains velocities above 2,200 fps out to 400 yards when fired from typical 7mm cartridges. The controlled expansion creates wound channels 1.5-2 times the original diameter while retaining enough mass for deep penetration on elk, deer, and similar game. Temperature stability remains consistent from -20°F to 125°F, making these bullets reliable across hunting seasons.
