The Remington Core-Lokt 308 Winchester 150-grain pointed soft point delivers proven terminal performance for medium to large game hunting. This ammunition features Remington's original controlled expansion bullet design that has accounted for more big game harvests than any other rifle bullet. The tapered copper jacket locks to the lead core, ensuring maximum weight retention and deep penetration on impact.
What Makes This Different
The Core-Lokt design bonds the jacket to the lead core through a proprietary process that prevents separation during expansion. This controlled expansion creates a mushroom effect that transfers maximum energy to the target while retaining 65-75% of the original bullet weight. Standard soft point bullets often fragment or lose their jacket, reducing penetration and stopping power on larger game animals.
