The Hornady® SST® (Super Shock Tip) is designed to deliver tremendous shock on impact while expanding quickly and reliably, particularly at higher velocities. Flat shooting and deadly accurate, it's an ideal bullet for whitetails and similar sized game. The SST® creates a devastatingly large wound channel.
We recommend this bullet for the hunter that prefers more dramatic energy dump on impact, or the hunter trying to extend the range of more traditionally shaped bullets.
This round is designed to fit and function through standard short actions and magazines with standard twist rates. Custom seating depths are available for rifles with modified magazines.
We measure each powder charge to within +/- .02 grains on our Autotrickler powder systems. We seat each bullet with Redding competition seat dies on our Forster Co-Ax single stage press. We load them one at a time! Each round is hand measured for consistency and placed into our hard plastic, twenty count boxes. Each box has a foam insert and neoprene strap to keep your rounds secure in the field. This is loaded ammunition. Twenty (20) rounds per box.
