Hornady SST 30 Cal .308 150gr Super Shock Tip Bullets - 100 Count

The Hornady SST 30303 delivers controlled expansion and deep penetration for medium to large game hunting applications. This 150-grain Super Shock Tip bullet combines proven ballistic performance with consistent accuracy across hunting distances.

What Makes This Different

The Super Shock Tip design features a polymer tip that initiates rapid expansion while the InterLock ring mechanically locks the core and jacket together. Unlike standard soft point bullets that can separate on impact, the SST maintains weight retention of 80-85% while creating devastating wound channels. The secant ogive profile reduces drag and maintains velocity downrange better than traditional round nose designs.

Key Features

• 150-grain Super Shock Tip bullet optimized for .308 Winchester and 30-06 Springfield
• Polymer tip initiates expansion at velocities as low as 1,600 fps
• InterLock ring prevents core-jacket separation during expansion
• Secant ogive boat tail design improves ballistic coefficient to .415
• Cannelured shank provides consistent crimping and bullet retention
• Lead core with gilding metal jacket construction
• Bulk packaging of 100 bullets for serious reloaders

Field performance demonstrates reliable expansion from 50 to 400 yards on deer, elk, and similar-sized game. The controlled expansion creates wound channels 2-3 times bullet diameter while retaining enough mass for complete penetration. Temperature stability remains consistent from -40°F to 140°F, making these bullets suitable for various hunting conditions and climates.
