The HSM Tipping Point 2 Super Shock Tip ammunition delivers exceptional terminal performance for 7mm Remington Magnum rifles. This premium hunting cartridge combines HSM's precision manufacturing with Hornady's proven SST bullet technology to create devastating wound channels on medium to large game.
What Makes This Different
The 162-grain Hornady Super Shock Tip bullet features a polymer tip that initiates controlled expansion upon impact while maintaining structural integrity during flight. Unlike standard soft-point bullets that can deform in the magazine or during feeding, the SST's streamlined profile ensures consistent ballistic performance. The InterLock ring mechanically locks the core and jacket together, preventing separation and delivering 95% weight retention even on heavy bone contact.
Key Features
- 162-grain Hornady Super Shock Tip bullets with polymer tip design
- InterLock ring technology prevents core-jacket separation
- Secant ogive profile reduces drag for flatter trajectory
- Premium brass cases with consistent wall thickness
- Temperature-stable powder for reliable performance
- Muzzle velocity of approximately 2,940 fps
- Muzzle energy exceeding 3,100 foot-pounds
Field testing demonstrates excellent accuracy potential with sub-MOA groups achievable in quality rifles. The 162-grain weight provides optimal sectional density for the 7mm caliber, ensuring deep penetration on elk, deer, and similar-sized game. The SST bullet expands reliably at velocities from 1,600 to 3,200 fps, making it effective from close range out to extended hunting distances. Weather-resistant primer sealing protects against moisture in harsh hunting conditions.
