The Hornady 3031 InterLock .308 Diameter 150 Grain Bullet is designed for hunters who want deep penetration, consistent mushrooming, and dead-on accuracy in a traditional-style hunting projectile. This bullet has earned its reputation as a reliable performer in the field—season after season, shot after shot.
With its InterLock® ring, this bullet keeps the core and jacket locked together, delivering devastating terminal ballistics even on large game. Unlike bullets that may fragment or lose structural integrity on impact, the InterLock holds together—maximizing retained weight and ensuring deep, straight-line penetration through dense muscle and bone.
The tapered jacket design and lead-alloy core are optimized for controlled expansion, allowing the bullet to open up reliably without overexpanding or coming apart. That means you get maximum energy transfer and a larger wound cavity, increasing the likelihood of a clean, ethical kill.
What sets the InterLock apart from other cup-and-core bullets is Hornady’s meticulous engineering. The bullet features a secant ogive profile that reduces drag and enhances ballistic efficiency—translating to flatter trajectories and better long-range performance. Hunters using the InterLock benefit from a projectile that maintains velocity, resists wind drift, and remains stable from muzzle to target.
Ideal for:
This bullet is ideal for hunters targeting whitetail deer, black bear, elk, and similar game, particularly where deep penetration and controlled expansion are critical. It performs well in bolt-action, lever-action, and semi-automatic rifles chambered in classic .308 or .30-06 cartridges.
