The Hornady Superformance 7mm Remington Magnum 162 Grain SST Ammo 80633 is engineered to enhance your rifle’s performance by increasing velocity without additional chamber pressure, recoil, or muzzle blast. Utilizing progressive propellants, this ammunition achieves speeds up to 200 fps faster than conventional rounds, resulting in flatter trajectories and improved downrange energy.
The Super Shock Tip (SST®) bullet features a sharp, pointed polymer tip that initiates rapid expansion upon impact. Its one-piece core and jacket, strengthened in critical areas, ensure controlled expansion and superior weight retention, leading to deep penetration and effective terminal performance on medium to large game.
With a muzzle velocity of 3,030 fps and muzzle energy of 3,302 ft-lbs, this ammunition provides the power needed for ethical hunting. The InterLock® ring mechanically locks the core and jacket together, maintaining bullet integrity during expansion.
