Hornady SST 6.5mm 123gr #26173
The Hornady SST is built to impart a significant amount of shock on impact while expanding fast and consistently, especially at higher velocities.
It's the perfect bullet for whitetails, as well as most North American game animals from antelope to moose and comparable-sized African plains wildlife, as it shoots flat and is deadly accurate. An enormously destructive wound channel is produced by the SST.
POLYMER TIP
Upon impact, the hard polymer tip drives into the lead core like a wedge, initiating lightning-fast, yet controlled expansion.
SECANT OGIVE, BOATTAIL PROFILE
Incorporating the pioneering Hornady secant ogive design, the tapered point, increased bearing surface and more aerodynamic profile, combined with a boattail base, makes the SST® more efficient with less drag and greater stability.
CANNELURE
A mid-body cannelure helps keep the core and jacket together while providing a consistent, accurate crimp during the loading process.
INTERLOCK® RING
This Hornady exclusive design mechanically locks the core and jacket together to maintain bullet integrity during expansion, ensuring maximum weight retention and increasing the chances of complete pass-throughs.
Is the Speer Gold Dot 6.5mm 140gr suitable for hunting?
Yes. Its bonded construction makes it well suited to hunting applications.
Is this a bonded projectile?
Yes. Speer uses an electrochemical bonding process to join the jacket and core.
Does it have a high ballistic coefficient?
Yes. The listed G1 ballistic coefficient is 0.571, supporting a streamlined trajectory.
Does the pack contain 50 projectiles?
