The Remington Core-Lokt Tipped 308 Winchester delivers controlled expansion and deep penetration for consistent hunting performance. This 150-grain ammunition combines the proven Core-Lokt technology with a polymer tip for improved ballistics and terminal performance on medium to large game.
What Makes This Different
The Core-Lokt Tipped design features a polymer tip that initiates expansion while the bonded lead core and tapered copper jacket ensure 95% weight retention. Unlike standard soft-point bullets that can deform during feeding, the polymer tip maintains bullet integrity and improves ballistic coefficient by 10-15% over traditional Core-Lokt rounds. The progressive expansion creates a larger wound channel while maintaining structural integrity for deep penetration.
Key Features
- 150-grain Core-Lokt Tipped bullet with polymer tip for reliable expansion
- Bonded lead core retains 95% of original weight for maximum penetration
- Tapered copper jacket controls expansion from tip to base
- Improved ballistic coefficient increases downrange velocity and energy
- Brass cases with boxer primers for reliable ignition
- Factory-loaded to SAAMI specifications for consistent performance
- Compatible with all 308 Winchester chamber firearms
Field testing shows this ammunition maintains over 1,800 ft-lbs of energy at 200 yards, making it effective for deer, elk, and black bear hunting. The polymer tip ensures consistent feeding in semi-automatic rifles while the controlled expansion creates reliable wound channels in game animals weighing 100-400 pounds. Temperature-stable powder maintains velocity consistency across hunting conditions from -20°F to 125°F.
