The Hornady SST (Super Shock Tip) projectile is engineered to deliver significant energy transfer upon impact, expanding quickly and reliably, particularly at higher velocities. These flat-shooting and highly accurate projectiles are ideal for a wide range of game animals, including whitetails, most North American game from antelope to moose, and similar-sized African plains game. The SST design is optimised for effective energy transfer and expansion.

Key Features

• POLYMER TIP: Upon impact, the hard polymer tip drives into the lead core like a wedge, initiating rapid, 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, make 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.
