Speer 1805 30 Cal 100gr Soft Point Round Nose Bullets 100/Box

The Speer 1805 delivers consistent expansion and deep penetration for 30 caliber rifle applications. These 100-grain soft point round nose bullets combine proven jacket design with optimized lead core construction for reliable terminal performance across hunting and target shooting applications.

What Makes This Different

Speer's Hot-Cor construction process bonds the lead core to the jacket during formation, eliminating core separation issues common with standard cup-and-core bullets. This manufacturing technique creates uniform expansion characteristics while maintaining structural integrity through bone and tissue. The round nose profile reduces air resistance and provides smooth feeding in lever-action rifles and vintage bolt guns where pointed bullets may cause feeding issues.

Key Features

• Hot-Cor bonded construction prevents core-jacket separation
• 100-grain weight optimized for medium game and target applications
• Soft point design initiates controlled expansion on impact
• Round nose profile ensures reliable feeding in tube magazines
• Consistent 0.308" diameter with tight weight tolerances
• Compatible with standard 30 caliber rifle cartridges (.308 Win, .30-06, .300 Savage)
• Bulk packaging reduces cost per projectile for high-volume shooting

Field testing demonstrates effective expansion at velocities from 2,000 to 3,200 fps, making these bullets suitable for cartridges ranging from .300 Savage to .30-06 Springfield. The round nose configuration works particularly well in lever-action rifles where pointed bullets create safety concerns in tubular magazines. Hunters report reliable performance on deer-sized game at ranges up to 200 yards, while target shooters appreciate the consistent accuracy potential.
